A plane has crashed in Philadelphia with six people on board.

The flight was heading to Tijuana – a Mexican city on the border with the USA. All those on board were Mexican citizens. Reports indicate that the plane was returning home a young patient and her mother after treatment. The remaining passengers were crew members. According to a company representative, participants in such flights undergo rigorous training, and the aircraft undergoes thorough inspections.

The aircraft disappeared from radar while climbing and soon crashed at a busy intersection near a shopping center. Several buildings caught fire as a result of the crash, but they were quickly extinguished, as reported by the Associated Press.

President Donald Trump has already responded to the second airline disaster in the United States in just a few days. "It is so sad to see a plane crash in Philadelphia. Even more innocent souls lost," wrote Trump.

On the evening of January 29, a passenger plane carrying 64 people – including young figure skaters – collided with a military helicopter carrying three soldiers near Washington. There are no hopes of finding survivors. This aviation disaster has become the deadliest in the U.S. since 2009.
