00:0028 bodies have been recovered from the river
00:03where the airplane and Black Hawk helicopter crashed
00:07in the air in America
00:09according to the Fire Chief of the District of Columbia.
00:12Witnesses are J.P. Soriano.
00:17An airplane and Black Hawk helicopter of the U.S. Army crashed in the Himpapawid.
00:23It was captured by the observation camera of the Kennedy Center.
00:27The airplane was about to land at Ronald Reagan National Airport in America.
00:31The air traffic control audio recorded the moments before and after the crash.
00:39Did you see that?
00:39Then, the air traffic controller immediately avoided the other aircraft.
00:44I don't know if you caught earlier what happened but there was a collision on the approach on the 33.
00:51We're going to be shutting down operations for the indefinite future.
00:54We witnessed the whole thing.
00:56Two aircraft fell in the Potomac River
00:59causing a search and rescue operation.
01:03According to American Airlines,
01:0560 passengers and 4 crew members were on board the airplane.
01:09Some of them were figure skaters from America
01:13and two former world champions from Russia.
01:16Three soldiers were on board the helicopter according to a U.S. official.
01:21The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating
01:24while stopping all landings and takeoffs in the area.
01:30All we can confirm tonight is the number of people on each aircraft
01:35when we can't provide any more information about recovery efforts.
01:39The focus now is rescuing people
01:43and that's what all of our personnel are focused on.
01:46The route of the airplane was seen in this flight tracking data
01:50before it lost its signal as it flew over the Potomac River.
01:55The accident was reported to U.S. President Donald Trump
01:59who thanked the first responders.
02:02In a separate post, Trump said that he hoped the accident would be avoided.
02:07The Philippine Embassy in Washington, D.C. also pointed out the incident.
02:12They have yet to receive a report that a Filipino was involved.
02:17For GMA Integrated News, I am JP Soriano, your witness.
