Horrific Footage Shows South Korean Airliner Explode During A Failed Landing, 96 Dead So Far

Posted • December 29, 2024: A devastating plane crash at Muan International Airport on Sunday has left at least 96 dead and scores missing. The Jeju Airlines flight, carrying 181 people, veered off the runway upon landing and burst into flames, South Korea’s National Fire Agency confirmed. “Two survivors have been rescued, including one flight attendant and one passenger,” the fire agency stated. Rescue operations are ongoing, with 32 fire trucks and hundreds of emergency responders at the scene. The ill-fated Boeing 737-8AS was returning from Bangkok, Thailand when it encountered issues during landing. Initial reports suggest a combination of a bird strike and adverse weather conditions may have caused the crash. Video footage from local broadcaster MBC showed smoke billowing from the engines moments before the plane was engulfed in flames. During a briefing, Lee Jeong-hyun, chief of the Muan Fire Station, confirmed, “The exact cause will be determined after a joint investigation, but initial findings point to external factors.”
