A holiday airliner crash-landed in Thailand yesterday in bad weather, killing at least 89 passengers and crew. Rescuers were still removing bodies from the wreckage at the airport at the southern resort of Phuket on Monday.
Thai officials say the dead included British, Irish, Australian and Isreali tourists who had been among the 123 passengers and 5 crew on board the flight from Bangkok operated by the budget airline One-Two-Go.
Investigators have said that the pilot tried to abort the landing as the plane approached the airport but lost balance and crashed. It was torn into two.
