Tragic Collision Over the Potomac River

An American Airlines plane collided with an Army Blackhawk helicopter near Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport, resulting in a tragic incident where dozens of bodies have been recovered, and no survivors are believed to exist. The commercial airliner, carrying 60 passengers and four crew members, was returning from Wichita, while the military helicopter had three people on board. Video footage captured the moment of collision, which led to a fireball in the sky and prompted the grounding of all flights at the airport. The National Transportation Safety Board has initiated an investigation to determine the crash's causes while the recovery operation focuses on reuniting the deceased with their loved ones.
