On Wednesday, a small plane crashed in a rural area of Norte de Santander province, Colombia, killing all 15 people on board, including a congressman, according to authorities. The state‑owned airline Satena reported that local officials in Curasica alerted authorities to the crash site, prompting the deployment of rescue teams. The Colombian Transportation Ministry later confirmed that no survivors were found. The aircraft, registered as HK4709, had departed from Cucuta at 11:42 a.m. bound for Ocaña on a 40‑minute flight, with its final contact with air traffic control occurring just minutes after takeoff. <br /><br />#teleSUREnglish #Colombia #PlaneCrash #NorteDeSantander #Satena #Aviation #Tragedy <br />
