An Air India Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner carrying 242 people crashed immediately after taking off from Gujarat’s Ahmedabad airport. There were 232 passengers and 10 crew on board. A video shows the aircraft flying low and struggling to gain altitude before slamming into the ground and exploding in a massive ball of fire at 1.38 pm local time.
