Big breaking news

It sounds like you are referring to the tragic air ambulance crash that has gripped the state recently. While the casualty count was actually 7 people, the details of this "terrible accident" match the heartbreaking incident in Jharkhand's Chatra district.
​Here is a short news summary of the tragedy:
​#Breaking: Tragic Air Ambulance Crash Claims 7 Lives
​CHATRA, JHARKHAND – In a devastating incident that has sent shockwaves across the state, a Beechcraft C90 air ambulance operated by Redbird Airways crashed in the dense forests of the Simaria block.
​The Details
​The Mission: The flight was a medical evacuation carrying a critically ill burn patient, Sanjay Kumar, from Ranchi to Delhi for urgent treatment.
​The Crash: The aircraft took off from Birsa Munda Airport at 7:11 PM and lost radar contact just 20 minutes later. It is believed that severe thunderstorms and adverse weather caused the plane to go down in the Kasiyatu forest.
​The Victims: Sadly, there were no survivors. All 7 people on board perished, including:
​The patient and two family members.
​A doctor and a paramedic.
​Two experienced pilots.
​Latest Update
​Just this week (March 2026), search teams recovered the second engine of the aircraft nearly a kilometer away from the main crash site. Investigators from the AAIB and DGCA are using these parts to determine if a technical failure occurred alongside the bad weather.
​The state government has expressed deep condolences and promised compensation to the grieving families who had borrowed heavily to fund this life-saving flight.
