Trump meets Zelenskyy at Vatican, agrees on further talks
President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met ahead of Pope Francis' funeral at the Vatican, according to sources.
A catastrophic mid-air collision over Washington DC has left 67 people dead. A commercial airliner and a US Army helicopter crashed into the Potomac River—now, investigators are searching for answers.
The black boxes from both aircraft have been recovered. Officials say the flight data and cockpit voice recorders could provide critical clues about what went wrong. The National Transportation Safety Board will analyse the data, with a preliminary report expected in 30 days.
New concerns are emerging about air traffic control staffing. Sources say only one controller was on duty at the time—half the usual number—raising questions about safety at one of the world’s most controlled airspaces.
Recovery teams have retrieved 28 bodies so far, but the search was suspended overnight due to dangerous conditions in the icy Potomac waters. The American Airlines flight was carrying 64 passengers, including young figure skaters and their coaches, while the Black Hawk helicopter had three soldiers onboard.
At the White House, President Trump led a moment of silence for the victims, later suggesting without evidence that lower hiring standards for air traffic controllers could have played a role. He then signed an executive order to end diversity, equity, and inclusion practices in aviation and appointed a new FAA head.
Meanwhile, Russia has confirmed that several of its citizens were among the victims. The Kremlin has extended its condolences, calling it a “tragic loss of life.”
