Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - Monitoring: At least 18 people were injured after a plane crash at Canada’s Toronto Pearson International Airport, according to Fire Chief Todd Aitken. The Delta Air Lines flight with 80 people on board from Minneapolis ended upside down on the runway, and one passenger described hanging “like bats” inside the aircraft after it crashed.
Airport CEO Deborah Flint credited the “textbook response” of first responders for ensuring no lives were lost. However, she said two runways will remain closed for the next few days as investigators look into the cause of the crash.
The incident comes less than three weeks after an American Airlines plane collided midair with a US Army Black Hawk helicopter while on approach to Washington DC’s Reagan National Airport, and on the heels of deadly Jeju Air and Azerbaijan Airlines accidents in December./CNN News
