Aircraft crashed in Chile

A aircraft with six occupants crashed on Wednesday night near the capital of Chile, while transporting a patient to the area near the northern border of Latin America, authorities said. The contact was lost by the aircraft near El Rove hill, at the Kurakavi site, 40 kilometers west of the capital Santiago, according to a statement by the Chilean DGAC Directorate General (DGAC), which was released at 21:37 (local time; 04:37). The Piper Cheyenne II-type aircraft, registered with the CC-CCC code, had taken off from the capital Santiago to Arika and crashed while carrying “six people”, DGAC explained via X. In the area, investigations are underway. The area, at “high altitude”, is “extremely inaccessible”, the mayor of Kurakav, Christian Ernades, pointed out on a television network of Chile. This element is “deteriorating” rainfall in the Chilean capital yesterday, he added.
