7:09 pm
what more have you learned about this an accident? well, the crucial question could not yet be answered. the reason for this crush and basically the whole country is wondering what exactly happened. i mean it's a very spectacular video that was circulated on social media that showed how the new plane was basically falling vertically down from the sky into the mountains. and also i witnesses told local media that and they have no see no, haven't seen any visible sign of smoke or fire in the plane. so basically came down from the sky. then they rushed to the scene even before the rescue mission. and what day witnessed was basically destruction and some clothes were hanging on the trees, but on the ground there was not much left of the plane because it was burning. and there was also a forest fire that could be as extinguished later. but yeah, a lot of descriptive destruction, very horrible. and we don't know even the confirm number of people who died,
7:10 pm
but at least from what we could see on social media and also by local media reports . i think the hopes should not be too high. that there are ursa survivors because it looked really like the worst happen and for sure it is the worst and most tragic, a plane crash in china for almost 12 years. yeah. in terms of the safety track, record of china, eastern airlines. is it good? well, i mean, the country and the china in general had really a very tragic period during the ninety's. there were a lot of cock paint precious. but during the last 20 years, the country had a re safe a period and, and now of the airline, china, eastern airlines basically had no major accidents for almost 2 decades. so you could say it's a safe airline, but international standards. and the reason why this happened now to me, the tragedy of today is really not known because many experts,
7:11 pm
aviation safety experts, they said that even if the 2 engines of the boeing 737, failed a simultaneous li, then it would not explain how a plane basically, crashes falling down like a stone from the sky and because it would usually glide, but it was really a vertical line. and so there must be some as a reason. and i hope that we get on the ground soon m m. now even though they are 1000 people rescuers ongoing, we have not found yet the black box of the plane, and maybe that could help shed some light into this tragedy. yes, indeed, off having a customer reporting from beijing. thank you very much for that update. frances agricultural minister says the russian invasion of ukraine could lead to a global food crisis. ukraine is normally one of the world's biggest grain exporters, but with the war threatening this year is harvest a shortfall and higher prices will likely be felt across the globe. and now
