Air India Express Flight 1344, carrying 190 people, crashed while attempting to land in Kerala, India on August 7th, 2020. The aircraft was arriving from Dubai when it overshot the runway and fell down a 35-foot gorge. At least 18 people, including both pilots, lost their lives and more than 100 were injured. The investigation into the cause of the accident is ongoing, but low visibility due to heavy rainfall and a tailwind are suspected to have been contributing factors. The incident is the first fatal crash in the history of Air India Express.
