All but two of the 181 people on board a Jeju Air plane have been killed when it crash-landed in Muan International Airport in South Korea, authorities said Sunday.
Authorities believe that a bird strike might be the reason for the plane, flying from Bangkok to South Korea, to declare emergency.

The plane landed on its belly at Muan International Airport, skidded off the runway, crashed into a wall, and exploded into flames.
