One person, a British citizen, has survived and is currently undergoing treatment for injuries sustained during the accident.
“The UK has set up a Reception Centre in the Ummed Hotel to provide support and advice for the families and friends of British nationals following the plane crash on 12 June,” the British High Commission said in the post on X.
