    "The plane crash was terrible, I've already told them, anything we can do, we'll be over there immediately,” US President Donald Trump said.

    Calling it one of the worst disasters in aviation history, the US President added, "It was a horrible crash. Nobody has any idea what it might be."

    "I gave them a couple of pointers, we saw the plane, and it looked like it was flying pretty well, it didn't look like there (could be) an explosion. It just looked like maybe the engines lost power," he further said.

    According to Air India, of the 230 passengers, 169 were Indians, 53 British, seven Portuguese and one Canadian. The other 12 people on board were two pilots and 10 crew members.
