nice888 app download Tweet Facebook Mail Scores of people were killed on Sunday when a passenger jet crash-landed at an airport in southwestern South Korea , with the aircraft careening down the runway on its belly before bursting into flames. Just two of the 181 people on board the plane survived, after the deaths of 179 people were confirmed, according to the local fire department. The two survivors are both crew members who were pulled alive from the crash site. It is believed they were both sitting right at the back of the plane. It is the deadliest aviation disaster to hit South Korea since 1997, when a Korean Airlines Boeing 747 crashed in the Guam jungle, with the loss of 228 lives.

(Getty) What happened? Jeju Air flight 7C 2216 from Bangkok was carrying 175 passengers and six crew when disaster struck at the airport in Muan county, on the country's southwestern tip, just after 9 a.m. local time Sunday (7 p.m. ET Saturday). Footage of Sunday's crash broadcast by multiple South Korean news outlets showed the plane sliding on its belly at high speed, hitting an earthen embankment and erupting in a fireball. Neither the back nor front landing gear was visible in the footage – broadcast by networks including YTN, JTBC and MBC – as smoke poured from the back of the sliding aircraft. Firefighters were later seen using water cannons to extinguish the blazing wreckage of the aircraft, which was listed as a Boeing 737-800 on flight-tracking site FlightAware. Several parts of the aircraft were also seen strewn across the runway. The victims include 84 males, 85 females, and 10 people whose gender could not be determined, according to the South Jeolla Fire Service. Both of the survivors were crew members, one male and one female, according to the rescue team. Two Thai nationals were among those on board, according to the South Korean Land Ministry. All the other passengers were South Korean. READ MORE: Interest rates didn't budge in 2024. This is what experts expect them to do in 2025 A passenger plane is in flames at the Muan International Airport in Muan. (AP) What caused the accident? Experts told CNN that the plane's undercarriage – specifically, the wheels used for takeoff and landing – appeared not to have fully deployed before landing. But what caused this failure to deploy is still unclear. Aviation analysts said more evidence is needed before South Korean authorities can definitively pinpoint what might have caused Sunday's crash, including speculation from local officials about a possible bird strike prior to the crash landing. The comments came after Lee Jeong-hyun, the head of the Muan Fire Department, briefed the media that the cause was "estimated to be the occurrence of a bird strike or bad weather." Footage of the crash showed clear skies at the time. David Soucie, former Federal Aviation Administration safety inspector, said that "speculation is the worst enemy of an investigator." "In fact, that's why it's so protected when there is an aircraft accident investigation, the information is protected. They're not supposed to be making any speculation about this type of thing," Soucie told CNN's Paula Newton.

(AP) Aviation industry consultant Scott Hamilton echoed Soucie's concerns and urged South Korean authorities to "stop making declarative statements" at this stage. Sunday's crash is "very perplexing" given that both the aircraft and carrier have a strong safety record and flying conditions were excellent, an aviation journalist said. The Boeing 737-800 is one of the most widely used aircraft in the world and each one is used for about four or five flights per day, Geoffrey Thomas, editor of Airline News, told CNN's Paula Newton. "It is the most reliable aircraft in the world, and it's been in service for 20 years," he said. "Everybody knows how it works. And it works really, really well. And the maintenance done in [South] Korea is as good as it gets around the world." "It's a little bit unclear whether or not the undercarriage collapsed on landing or whether the undercarriage was not deployed at all. This is a really serious issue that obviously investigators will be very much focused on," Thomas added. He added "it is perplexing" that the crash happened, given it was landing under dry and sunny conditions at a good airport. Jeju Air's chief executive said the aircraft had shown "no signs of issues" prior to Sunday's accident. "At this time, it is difficult to determine the cause of the accident, and we have to wait for the official announcement of the investigation by the relevant government agency," Kim Yi-bae said during a press briefing at the airport.

Officers from the national Incident Investigation Committee had arrived to look into what caused the accident. The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) is leading a team of US investigators, including from Boeing and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), to assist South Korean authorities with their investigation of the crash. The NTSB said any information about the investigation would be released by South Korea's Aviation and Railway Accident Investigation Board (ARAIB). According to a briefing from South Korea's Land Ministry, the control tower had instructed the pilot to change course to land in the opposite direction, to avoid the potential bird strike. The pilot followed the instructions. Approximately one minute later, the pilot made a mayday call to the tower. The landing attempt occurred approximately two minutes after the mayday call, according to the ministry. Authorities are continuing their investigation. The "black box" flight data recorder has been recovered by the accident investigation committee while the voice recording device has not been recovered yet, officials from the ministry said. The flight data recorders or so-called "black boxes" offer aviation safety investigators critical facts when piecing together an incident. More than 700 personnel from the police, military, and coast guard have been mobilised for on-site response efforts, the ministry added.

South Korea's acting president said the site of Sunday's plane crash has been declared a special disaster zone as he vowed a full investigation into what caused the deadly disaster. "We will concentrate all resources on recovery and support for the victims. All necessary resources are being mobilised, and a special disaster zone has been declared," Choi Sang-mok said in a statement. Choi, who travelled to the crash site on Sunday, extended his "heartfelt condolences to the bereaved families" and pledged to make every effort to manage the aftermath of the incident and prevent similar accidents in future. The tragedy comes only two days into Choi's acting presidency, the latest chapter in a time of political chaos in South Korea. The country's current president, Yoon Suk Yeol, was stripped of his powers by parliament two weeks ago following a short-lived martial law order that plunged the country into political disarray. He is currently suspended while a top court decides his fate. Han Duck-soo, the man who stepped in to replace Yoon as acting president, was impeached by parliament on Friday, meaning Choi – the finance minister and deputy prime minister – stepped in for him.

"We are in contact with Jeju Air regarding Flight 2216 and stand ready to support them," Boeing said in a short statement posted to its X account. "We extend our deepest condolences to the families who lost loved ones and our thoughts remain with the passengers and crew," the company added. The US aviation giant has had a turbulent time in recent years, including two 737 Max crashes, a tragedy for which the company agreed to plead guilty to deceiving the Federal Aviation Administration during the certification process for the plane. However, analysts have described the Boeing 737-800 — an earlier and different model to the Max — as a reliable workhorse of the skies with an extremely strong safety record.

By Greg Otto December 4, 2024 A White House official says the Salt Typhoon hack has impacted eight telecom companies in the United States, with dozens of other countries also affected, and has been in motion for as long as two years. The information comes as U.S. administration officials said earlier this week that the hacking group, linked to the Chinese government, is still believed to be in U.S. telecom networks . The government began investigating the breach this past spring, and are continuing to assess its full scope.The spying efforts targeted officials from both presidential campaigns, including the phone of President-elect Donald Trump . Anne Neuberger, the White House’s deputy national security adviser for cyber and emerging technology, said Wednesday the Chinese campaign “has affected dozens of countries around the world.” She also reiterated what other government officials said earlier this week: the attackers are most likely still inside the telecom networks. “There is a risk of ongoing compromises to communications,” Neuberger said. “Until U.S. companies address cybersecurity gaps, the Chinese are likely to maintain their access.” Administration officials did not reveal the full list of companies impacted, nor did they share the countries that may have been affected. However, the White House noted that Chinese cyberespionage efforts have been discovered in the past few years targeting Europe and the Indo-Pacific region. Neuberger said a unified coordination group was established in response to the hack, which meets several times a week. President Joe Biden has been briefed multiple times on the situation. She also emphasized that the targets were among a handful of prominent government and political officials, but the attack “was broad in terms of potential access to communications of everyday Americans.” The White House also believes classified communications were unaffected. The impacted telecommunications companies are currently working to expel the hackers from their networks, but Neuberger said the risk of further breaches remains high until these cybersecurity gaps are fully addressed. The administration has recently convened discussions with telecommunications CEOs and cybersecurity experts to reinforce security measures across the sector. Earlier this week, a host of agencies released communication infrastructure-focused guidance . The agencies responsible were CISA, the National Security Agency, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Australian Signals Directorate’s Australian Cyber Security Centre, the Canadian Cyber Security Centre and New Zealand’s National Cyber Security Centre.

Wisconsin SWAT commander named Grand Forks' new police chiefThe ruling All Progressives Congress in Lagos State says council election will be held in all 20 Local Government Areas and 37 Local Council Development Areas in 2025. The APC Chairman, Pastor Cornelius Ojelabi, made this clarification in a statement on Sunday in Lagos, following speculations about the status of the 37 LCDAs in the state. “In recent times, the leadership of APC in Lagos State has been inundated by the media, party members and other stakeholders on information about the conduct of the forthcoming Local Government elections, most especially if elections will hold in the 37 Local Council Development Areas – LCDAs. “It has become expedient to clear the air on the needless and distractive speculation. “We wish to inform all and sundry that the Local Government elections will hold across the state in the 20 Local Government Councils and the 37 Local Council Development Areas in the year 2025,” Ojelabi said. According to him, since their creation, the LCDAs have not only been the closest to the grassroots but also brought the desired developments across the state. He said that the party had observed with keen interest the debates on the desirability of the existence of the LCDAs and the need to hold elections in their political offices. Ojelabi added, “Our position as a progressive party is that we cannot discountenance the contributions of the LCDAs to the overall political and socio-economic development of the state. “Our landscape is dotted by several infrastructural projects by the LCDAs, which include road, drainage and market construction, school and housing projects, primary education and health facilities and various social service interventions, among others. “The various collaborative efforts with the state government on refuse disposal, drain clearing and security are also pointers to their continuous relevance. “We hope this release will put paid to further speculations as regards the local government elections in order not to unnecessarily heat up the polity.” He urged party members and all residents to continue to coexist peacefully “as we all strive to maintain the leading position of our state in the federation.” The News Agency of Nigeria recalls that the move by the House of Assembly to create Area Administrative Councils in replacement of Local Council Development Areas through the proposed Local Government Administration Bill has been opposed by political stakeholders. The bill is titled: A Bill for a Law to Provide for Local Government’s System, Establishment And Administration And to Consolidate All Laws On Local Government Administration And Connected Purposes, is still being considered on the floor of the House. The Assembly, during a recent public hearing, said the bill was being considered to replace the current 37 Local Council Development Areas in the state with Area Administrative Councils According to the House, the bill to restructure local government administration in the state followed the Supreme Court judgment on financial autonomy for local governments.
