I offer condolences to the Asiana plane crash victims

On Saturday, an Asiana Boeing 777 that had flown 11 hours from Seoul, South Korea, crashed into the runway at San Francisco International Airport, killing two teenagers from China and injuring more than half of the 307 passengers and crew. I express condolences for the deaths of Chinese passengers aboard. The girls were students who were part of a group of 29 students and five teachers from the school who were heading to summer camps in California. It’s presumed that one victim was thrown off the plane during the crash. However, one victim was presumed to be hit by an emergency vehicle. I pray for the repose of the victims, and offer condolences to the bereaved.
