Nepal: Black box of ATR 72 aircraft recovered from the crash

The black box from the Yeti Airlines ATR 72 aircraft has been recovered from the crash. The plane, which had 72 people on board, had crashed a day ago in Pokhara minutes before the crash. As per information from the authorities a total of 68 bodies have been recovered so far.

The black box, a flight data recorder, is crucial in understanding the cause of the crash. The Deputy Inspector General of the Nepal Armed Police Force, earlier today, said that the rescue operations were resumed to trace the four who are still missing.

“We haven’t rescued anyone alive from the crash site,” said Nepal Army Spokesperson Krishna Prasad Bhandari.

Yeti Airlines recently shared an official statement on Twitter in which it said, “In mourning for the passengers who lost their lives in the accident of Yeti Airlines 9N ANC ATR 72 500, we would like to inform you that all regular flights of Yeti Airlines for 16th January 2023 have been cancelled.”
