'There's no Eid in our home.” Pakistani families mourn their loved ones who were killed in a plane crash in Karachi
A woman mourns the death of a relative, who was killed in a plane crash, outside a morgue in Karachi, Pakistan. May 23, 2020.
"We held many calls deliberating with doctors and family ... Our biggest concern was that they made the trip safely," said their son, Inam Ur Rahmaan, who instead of welcoming his parents for the Eid al Fitr holiday found himself picking through the wreckage of flight PK8303 praying for a miracle."When I saw the area, I realised that it would be a miracle if they had made it."
The jet fuel set the wreckage ablaze, along with homes and vehicles, sending black smoke into the sky, a witness said. The airline's chief executive said on Friday the last message from the pilot indicated a technical problem. A team from Airbus is due to arrive on Monday to investigate, a PIA spokesman said.
