The flight departed at approximately 1:38 p.m. local time and issued a Mayday call before losing contact at an altitude of around 625 feet.

The aircraft descended into the dining area of a medical college hostel, igniting a massive fireball and thick smoke visible across the city.

“The building on which it has crashed is a doctors’ hostel… we have cleared almost 70% to 80% of the area and will clear the rest soon,” a senior police officer told Reuters.
