An Air India flight crashed near Ahmedabad airport, killing over 270 people. The pilot issued a mayday call before the Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner plummeted to the ground, impacting a hostel. The flight data recorder has been recovered. Investigations are underway, with a team of UK experts assisting. Identifying victims is proving challenging due to the extent of the damage, causing delays in returning remains to families. One passenger miraculously survived.
