As per the reports, searchers deployed drones to search for two passengers still unaccounted for after Nepal’s deadliest plane crash in 30 years, which killed at least 70 people. Some rescuers abseiled down the 200-meter (656-foot) deep gorge in search of the missing passengers. Officials say the hope of finding anyone alive was “nil”. “There is thick fog here now. We are sending search and rescue personnel using ropes into the gorge where parts of the plane fell and were in flames,” Ajay KC, a police official in Pokhara stated.
