Families of victims of last year’s Air India crash gathered at the site on Friday to mark the anniversary of the disaster, still awaiting clear answers about its cause.
On June 12, 2025, a Boeing 787 crashed into a medical college shortly after takeoff in the western city of Ahmedabad, killing 260 people in the deadliest aviation disaster in a decade.
Indian authorities are expected to release an interim report in the coming days, a timeline that has frustrated relatives who had been expecting a final account of what went wrong.
Suresh Patni, a driver, returned to the site where the aircraft erupted into flames, engulfing his teenage son Akash at a family tea stall.
"We are here today only to remember him on his first death anniversary," Patni told Agence France-Presse (AFP).
