A light aircraft crash occurred in Spa, Belgium, according to RIA News, which cited regional authorities for details of the incident.
Officials expressed deep regret as they reported that a Sunday accident happened at 9:30 local time, shortly after the aircraft departed from Germany. The plane collided with a car parked beside the RN62 national highway near the airport, and the crash rapidly drew emergency responders to the scene.
The regional administration confirmed that two people on board the aircraft were killed in the accident. Fortunately, there were no injuries reported among people on the ground, and no other vehicles at the airport vicinity appeared to be involved in the crash based on the initial assessments.
Belgian media identified the deceased as German nationals. Reports also indicated that the pilot, born in 1992, may have lost control during the landing phase, leading to the aircraft veering off the runway area and striking a car parked adjacent to the airport grounds.
