At least 16 people have died after an air india plane skidded off a runway during heavy rain, in the southern indian city of kozhikode. The aircraft with 191 people on board broke in two after falling 35 feet down a ravine. Our correspondent Yogita Limaye has more. This plane was bringing home indians who had been stuck abroad amidst the covid pandemic. Landing in the dark amidst heavy rainfall, on what many say is a challenging runway, the plane couldnt stop in time. Both pilots are among those dead. That seems to have skidded off the runway and we must remember its a table top runway. So it seems to have crossed that runway and fallen into a ditch sort of a place. And because of that impact, there seems to have been a breaking of the fuselage into two and the aircraft, the front portion has been very badly mangled and damaged. Locals were among the first to respond. The injured, taken to hospitals in taxis and private cars. Families, searching for loved ones theyve waited months for.
