Sunday’s plane crash in Nepal’s Pokhara, that claimed 68 lives, saw a Yeti Airlines plane collide into the bank of the Seti River between the country’s old airport and the new airport.
The new airport – Pokhara International Airport – was inaugurated just around two weeks ago by the country’s newly appointed Prime Minister Pushpa Kamal Dahal ‘Prachanda’ and built with Chinese assistance.
