Police claimed there “appears to be no survivor” after a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner carrying 242 passengers crashed in India on Thursday. The plane was headed to London.
With the exception of the September 11, 2001 attacks, the following is a list of the deadliest aircraft accidents in the twenty-first century:
Ukraine killed 298
Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 was shot down over rebel-held eastern Ukraine on July 17, 2014, while it was traveling from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur.
193 Dutch nationals were among the 298 people who perished on board the Boeing 777.
Moscow criticized the UN aviation agency’s (ICAO) May verdict as “biased” for blaming Russia for the jetliner’s downing.
