Emergency services have recovered 40 bodies following a collision between a passenger plane and a military helicopter in Washington, with no survivors expected from the crash near Ronald Reagan National Airport.
Emergency services have recovered the bodies of 40 victims following a tragic collision between a passenger plane and a military helicopter in Washington.
According to CBS, citing sources within the security services, some bodies were found washed ashore, while others were discovered underwater. Specialists believe they have now located all the remains that can be safely recovered from the wreckage of the fuselage. However, the tail section of the aircraft remains inaccessible to divers, and it is possible that more victims may be found there.
The crash involved a Bombardier CRJ700 passenger plane, operated by American Airlines, which plummeted into the Potomac River after colliding with a Sikorsky H-60 Black Hawk military helicopter near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. Emergency responders have indicated that there are likely no survivors from the incident.
The incident highlights ongoing concerns regarding air traffic safety and coordination between civilian and military aviation in the region.
