UK investigators arrive in India as tributes pour in for plane crash victims

A Boeing 787 Dreamliner carrying 242 people crashed shortly after takeoff from Ahmedabad on Thursday, killing 241 passengers including 53 Britons.
The flight that crashed shortly after departing from Ahmedabad to London included passengers from India, the United Kingdom, Portugal, and Canada, with DNA testing underway to assist in identifying the victims.
Among the victims were families with young children, wellness advocates, and professionals like radiologist Dr Prateek Joshi and the couple Akeel Nanabawa, Hannaa Vorajee, and their daughter Sara.
King Charles observed a minute's silence during Trooping the Colour, and the International Siddhashram Shakti Center planned a memorial service inviting all faiths to honor the victims.
UK investigators arrived in India after recovering the plane’s black box; the crash’s cause remains unknown but could involve mechanical failure, while the sole survivor, Briton Vishwash Kumar Ramesh, remains under observation.
