A tragic midair collision in Washington, D.C., has claimed the lives of two Chinese citizens, according to a statement from the Chinese embassy in the U.S. The incident, involving an American Airlines regional jet and a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter, left all 67 people aboard dead after crashing into the Potomac River on Wednesday night.
Air travel at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport resumed January 30, but the aftermath has sparked political tensions. Authorities are still recovering bodies, while debates over aviation safety protocols and responsibility for the crash dominate headlines.
The embassy expressed deep condolences and urged swift investigations. 'We are closely monitoring developments and will provide necessary support to the families,' a spokesperson said. The tragedy underscores cross-border cooperation challenges during crises—and the human cost of aviation disasters.
