A deadly aircraft accident has taken place in the US capital, Washington DC. A passenger plane carrying 64 people was about land at DC's Reagan Airport. A US military Black Hawk helicopter was conducting nighttime drills nearby. The helicopter collided with the plane as it was trying to land, causing a midair explosion. Both aircraft fell into the Potomac river below. Search and rescue operations are underway. But DC officials fear that no survivors will be found. US President Donald Trump has criticised the conduct of the Black hawk and the Air Traffic Controller. He says the crash should have been prevented.
