Officials confirmed there were no survivors, making it the deadliest U.S. air disaster in over two decades. Among the victims were U.S. and Russian figure skaters returning from a training event.
Investigators said both aircraft were following standard flight patterns, but officials, including President Trump, suggested the crash was preventable. Rescue operations remain underway as authorities recover bodies and search for answers.
