An airliner crashed at South Korea’s Muan International Airport, killing at least 28 people. The Jeju Air plane was carrying 175 passengers and six crew on a flight from Thailand when it went off the runway while landing. Two survivors were found and rescue efforts are ongoing. The tail section of the plane is being focused on for rescue efforts. Acting President Choi Sung-mok ordered all-out rescue efforts. The cause of the crash is unknown and Jeju Air is checking the reports. The incident has sparked a response from various officials and authorities, including Putin’s apology to Azerbaijan’s president for a ‘tragic incident.’ Reporting on the incident was done by several journalists and the article was written by Josh Smith with editing by Jonathan Oatis and William Mallard.
