A Boeing 737-800, Jeju Air Flight 2216, carrying 181 people, crashed at Muan International Airport in South Korea on December 28. The plane, returning from Bangkok, veered off the runway and burst into flames after attempting an emergency belly landing. Authorities believe a flock of birds may have caused a gear malfunction. Firefighters have rescued one passenger and one crew member, but 179 are presumed dead. Early footage showed a bird strike on the engine, though the authenticity of this video cannot be independently verified. The flight had 175 passengers, mostly South Korean, and six crew members.
