A plane crashed in Switzerland: there are casualties

On Saturday, May 20, a light aircraft crashed in the Swiss community of Pont de Martel. Three people died as a result of the incident.

It is reported Reuters.

The pilot and two passengers died on the spot. The rescue operation turned out to be difficult, because the accident happened in a mountainous area in the forest, not far from the village of La Combe Dernier.

The cause of the accident is still unknown, but an investigation is underway, local police said.

We previously reported that four children were found alive in Colombia two weeks after the plane they were on crashed. Among the rescued are an 11-month-old baby, as well as children aged 4, 9 and 13.
