A private jet attempting an emergency landing at La Romana International Airport in the Dominican Republic ended in disaster, with the pilot and co-pilot reportedly killed in the crash.
Emergency responders rushed to the scene, but unfortunately, the pilot and co-pilot could not be saved.
A shocking video has surfaced on social media showing the plane going up in flames.
The US-registered Gulfstream G200 jet was en route to Austin, Texas, when an emergency was declared due to severe mechanical problems.
The crew then returned to the airport and tried to make an emergency landing, but the aircraft crashed as it touched down, catching fire and exploding into a fireball.
Preliminary reports suggest that two crew members were on board.
The Dominican Institute of Civil Aviation (IDAC) and the Aviation Accident Investigation Commission (CIAA) are investigating the incident.
