washington - Former President Trump comments on the recent helicopter-plane collision in Washington, questioning why the incident was not prevented.

Former President Trump's Critique

Former President Donald Trump expressed his concerns regarding the recent collision between a helicopter and a plane in Washington, stating that the collision should have been prevented. According to Trump, the helicopter was flying directly towards the aircraft before the collision occurred. He questioned why the helicopter did not change its course despite the plane being clearly visible and following a normal landing path at Ronald Reagan National Airport. Trump also criticized the air traffic control for only asking the helicopter pilots if they saw the plane, instead of providing specific instructions to avoid the collision.

Trump's remarks were shared on Truth Social, a platform he recently joined. In his analysis, Trump emphasized that the situation appeared to be avoidable and concluded with a strong statement, 'NOT GOOD!!!!'

The former president did not disclose the basis of his comments, but he previously stated that he was fully informed about the incident. Meanwhile, the U.S. Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth confirmed that an immediate investigation has been launched by the Pentagon following the collision. Hegseth described the accident as 'absolutely tragic' and offered prayers for the affected individuals and their families.

The collision resulted in both aircraft plunging into the Potomac River, and the recovery efforts have reportedly discovered at least eighteen bodies, as per CBS News. The fate of any survivors remains uncertain.

Minister of Defense Initiates Investigation

Minister of Defense Pete Hegseth has assured that the military and the Pentagon have promptly initiated an investigation into the collision, labeling the incident as 'absolutely tragic'. He extended his condolences to the victims and their families, expressing deep sorrow over the unfortunate event.
