A China Eastern Airlines plane with 132 people on board has crashed in Southern China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on Monday. The number of casualties and the incident's precise cause remains undetermined, and rescue operations are underway.

 

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday (March 21) expressed shock and sadness over the crash of a passenger flight MU5735 with 132 onboard in China's Guangxi.

In a tweet, PM Modi said, "Our thoughts and prayers are with the victims of the crash and their family members."

China has placed on record the Prime Minister's gesture. Chinese envoy to India Sun Weidong said, "Thanks to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Indian friends for your prayers & sympathy for the loss in the air crash. Chinese President Xi Jinping has ordered all-out search and rescue efforts and proper settlement of aftermath."

A China Eastern Airlines plane with 132 people on board has crashed in Southern China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region on Monday. The crashed plane – Boeing 737 was flying from Kunming to Guangzhou when it came down in hills in Wuzhou City in Guangxi province and caught fire. The number of casualties and the incident's precise cause remains undetermined, and rescue operations are underway.

The Boeing 737, which crashed on Monday, had 132 onboard, including 123 passengers and nine crew members. It has been in operation for just over six and a half years. The plane was delivered in June 2015. The situation appears grim in terms of aircraft casualties, and the possibility of all onboard perishing cannot be ruled out.

Moreover, search and rescue are difficult due to the terrain around the crash site. China has had a good air safety record over the past decade. The country's last major plane accident was in August 2010, when a flight from Harbin crashed in Yichun, killing 44 people.

China's Civil Aviation Administration said it had also dispatched its investigators to the site. A mountain fire that broke out when the aircraft came down has been put out.
