A terrified witness told ANI: “I saw it with my own eyes. When the plane was descending, it looked like it would crash and it did. Soon after, it exploded.
“When we rushed to the spot, the aircraft was completely on fire. There were four to five more explosions.
“People tried to pull the passengers out but the fire was too intense.”
