Some 60 passengers are believed to have been on the ill-fated commercial jet that crashed late Wednesday after a midair collision with a military helicopter near Washington's airport, a US senator from Kansas said.

"A plane, traveling to the Nation's capital from Wichita, KS carrying roughly 60 passengers collided with a Military helicopter," Senator Roger Marshall posted on X, describing the situation as "nothing short of a nightmare."
