Following Wednesday night’s collision between an American Airlines aircraft from Kansas carrying 64 passengers and a military helicopter operated by three troops, recovery efforts are still ongoing in Washington, DC.
Top Russian and American figure skaters, a young pilot, flight attendants, and a lawyer returning home for her birthday are among the victims.
These are a few of the individuals thought to have been on the plane and the helicopter.
Passengers in aeroplanes
Asra Hussain Raza
After obtaining a master’s degree in hospital management, 26-year-old Asra Hussain Raza of Indiana relocated to the Washington, DC, area.
“She was returning from a work trip where she was helping to improve a hospital that really needed help,” her husband, Hamaad Raza, told television cameras outside the airport after displaying his wife’s most recent text message.
She was also doing what she loved, you know. Even the flight was something she was working on.
“She gave a lot, but she had so much more to give,” he continued. However, she was the one who exploited their 26 years of life the most.
Professor Kiah Duggins
The death of Professor Kiah Duggins in the crash was confirmed by the president of Howard University.
In the autumn, the civil rights attorney was scheduled to start teaching at the university’s School of Law.
In a statement cited by US media, the institution said, “She dedicated her career to fighting against unconstitutional policing and unjust money bail practices in Tennessee, Texas, and Washington DC.”
