I am currently working as a news website author at Daily News Hack. I mostly cover trending news and have been doing so for quite some time now. I have always had a keen interest in current affairs and the world around me, which is what led me to my current job. I firmly believe that the best way to learn about something is by doing it yourself and that is why I love my job so much. It allows me to be constantly learning about new things and then sharing that knowledge with others. I am also a big believer in the power of networking and building relationships. I think that LinkedIn is a great platform for connecting with like-minded people from all over the world.

On the morning of Sunday, January 15, an ATR 72 plane of Yeti Airlines crashed in Nepal, flying to Pokhara from Kathmandu.

According to the BBC, there were 72 people on board: 68 passengers and four crew members. At the moment, it is known that 53 Nepalese, 5 Indians, 4 Russians, 2 Koreans, passengers from Ireland, Argentina, Australia and France died.

The accident occurred near the airport in the city of Pokhara in the west of the country. The aircraft crashed during landing and caught fire. Videos posted on social media show the plane flying low over a populated area before turning sharply.

Recall that in December last year, a light aircraft crashed in the southeast of Kenya shortly after takeoff. Those on board, including six passengers, survived. Among them was the two-time Olympic champion, Kenyan athlete David Rudisha.
