US EditionBudapest Boxing Club Says Board Member, Family Among 11 Killed in Kenya Plane Crash
The crash killed 11 people including two Hungarian families and the Vasas SC sports director; investigation into pilot communication failure is ongoing, officials said.
- Vasas SC confirmed that its sports director and his family were among 11 killed in a Kenya plane crash after a Cessna Caravan crashed shortly after takeoff from Diani in Kwale County.
- The Cessna Caravan crashed shortly after takeoff from Diani, landing in a hilly, forested area of Kwale County, while Mombasa Air Safari said the pilot failed to communicate and the control tower tried contacting him for 30 minutes.
- Hungarian officials said the victims included two families and two children among eight Hungarians, two Germans and their Kenyan pilot, and a Budapest boxing club reported losing a board member and his family.
- Kenya's aviation department secretary Terry Mbaika said Wednesday that some bodies are yet to be recovered and the investigation will take 30 days, vowing to `do everything possible` for transparency.
- Unpaved roads and heavy rain are hampering crash-site access and recovery efforts, while a 2018 ICAO audit found Kenya's accident-investigation performance fell below the global average.
