110 people died after a Boeing 737-201 Adv plane (XA-UHZ) crashed near Cuba's main airport in Havana, the country's worst air disaster in decades. Three women were pulled alive from the wreckage, but are said to be in a critical condition. Cuban state media say a 23-year-old survivor Gretell Landrove Font of Friday’s plane crash in Havana has died on May 21, 2018, a 40-year-old surviver Emiley Sanchez De la O has died on May 25, 2018 raising the death toll to 112. The only survivor of the plane crash is Mailen Díaz Almaguer. The aircraft, built in 1979, was carrying 107 passengers and six crew members. Cuban authorities have launched an investigation, and two days of national mourning have been declared. The Boeing 737-201,
flight
CU972/
DMJ972
crashed at 12:08 on Friday,
shortly after taking off from Havana on an internal flight to Holguin on
the east of the island.
The
plane was rented by Cuban state carrier
Cubana de
Aviacion from
Aerolineas
Damojh. That's the legal name of a
small charter company that also goes by
Global Air. A statement from the country's
Transportation Department identified
the pilot and co-pilot as
Capt. Jorge Luis Nunez
Santos and first officer Miguel Angel Arreola Ramirez. It said the
flight attendants were Maria Daniela Rios, Abigail Hernandez Garcia and
Beatriz Limon. Global Air said maintenance worker Marco Antonio Lopez
Perez was also aboard.
All six crew members on board were
Mexican and the majority of the passengers were Cuban, with five
foreigners reported to be among them.
In social networks, the
photos of the victims began to be published by relatives. Among them
were the musical director
Jose Angel
and his wife, who were returning to Holguín. The Minister of Transportation, Abdel Rodríguez, stated that the Boeing 737 arrived in Cuba less than a month ago and that it was duly certified for its flight by all international and Cuban technical controls. "We have also given access to the American authorities and experts to the investigation, as this is a Boeing."
As of 18 July 2018, Cuban, Mexican and U.S. authorities had yet to
release the results of their investigation into the crash. ========================================================================================================
