Reuters provided the latest data on the air disaster in Ahmadabad

At least 270 people were killed on Thursday on Thursday in the Ahmadabada Airmadabad in Western India; These are both victims on board the machine and in the building that the plane hit – according to the latest data of local medical services, transferred on Saturday by the Reuters agency.

At least 270 bodies have been found at the scene of the disaster – said Dhaval Gameti from the BJ Medical College medical university, quoted by Reuters.

The AFP agency, which donated reports of 279 killed, referred to sources in the local police.

On Thursday, i.e. on the day of the disaster, more than 290 fatalities were informed.

Reuters reported that the families of the victims were gathered in front of the hospital in Ahmadabad, waiting to receive the bodies of their loved ones. “Doctors work after hours to take dental samples from the dead to determine their identity based on the traces of DNA,” the agency said.

Most of the bodies are very charred, so determining the identity of the victims sometimes becomes possible only on the basis of dental samples. Jaishankar Pillai, a court dentist, said on Friday in an interview with the media that he has a dental documentation of 135 victims, which can then be compared with previous dental charts, X -rays and other documents.

On Thursday, Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner Air India, flying to London, crashed right after the start from the airport in Ahmadabad. 242 people traveled by plane, including 230 passengers: 169 India citizens, 53 – Great Britain, seven – Portugal and one Citizen of Canada. Only one person survived the fall of the plane who hit the hostel and the canteen of a medical university, killing more people. (PAP)
