A passenger plane carrying 181 people crashed while landing at Muan International Airport, killing at least 85 people and initiating a search for survivors.
The plane's landing gear reportedly malfunctioned due to a bird strike, which could have contributed to the crash, as it was unable to land properly.
Photos showed the tail section engulfed in flames, indicating the severity of the crash, with officials stating the fuselage was unrecognizable apart from the tail.
This incident marks the worst aviation disaster for a South Korean airline since 1997, highlighting significant safety concerns in the region.
