Prayers for these people and their families.

Was in India about 5 years ago, and the people were very kind and the scenery was amazing.

Nothing odd about. Dubai is a MAJOR international hub.

Just saw raw footage from Fox. Hard to watch. A rescue worker was carrying away what appeared to be a small child that looked like a rag doll.

Prayers for all.

Fox saying reports are that the plane overshot the runway.
