Current Event-Ellen Whitehead

Last night, a plane crash that occurred in Russia was caught on film. The plane had just taken off from Moscow, on its way to Orsk, when the plane disappeared from the radar and crashed. It is unsure whether the plane crashed fully assembled or it disintegrated in the air. In the spot where the plane landed, there seems to be a crater, 25 feet wide and 5 feet deep. Russian authorities state that the investigations will continue for the next week in order to try to discover what caused this downfall. This crash caused the death of all 71 passengers aboard. This plane crash cause in unknown but hopefully after the investigation, the officials can assess the cause to prevent future crashes.

  3. Plane crashes are so terrible because most people don't make it out alive, and even though they are much less common than car crashes, they are way more deadly.
