WATCH: Eyewitness video shows black smoke after devestating Air India plane crash
More than 240 people were on board the flight
A plane that was en route to the UK has crashed in west India as local authorities have declared a major emergency.
The flight was heading to London Gatwick from the city of Ahmedabad, with at least 240 people believed to be on board.
Visuals showed thick black smoke rising up into the sky from the airport. GB News understands the crash took place in a civilian area of Ahmedabad.
The city police commissioner told reporters on the ground there appears to be no survivors from the plane. If all the passengers onboard are confirmed dead, it would be it the biggest UK air disaster since Lockerbie in 1988.
