U.K. House of Commons Leader Lucy Powell stated that the government would “provide all the support that it can” to families in the U.K. and India.

“It will undoubtedly be causing a huge amount of worry and concern to the many, many families and communities here and those waiting for the arrival of their loved ones,” Powell told MPs Thursday. “We send our deepest sympathy and thoughts to all those families.”

The British Foreign Office confirmed that “the U.K. is working with local authorities in India to urgently establish the facts and provide support to those involved.”

Air India said, “Flight AI171, operating Ahmedabad-London Gatwick, was involved in an incident today, 12 June 2025. At this moment, we are ascertaining the details and will share further updates.”

India’s Civil Aviation Minister Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu expressed that he was “shocked and devastated” by the crash.

“Rescue teams have been mobilized, and all efforts are being made to ensure medical aid and relief support are being rushed to the site,” he added.

    Just what we needed, an impromptu tour of the Indian countryside—who knew Air India had a side gig in aerial sightseeing? ✈️😬 Hope the “support” includes a good cup of tea while we wait for the updates!

    Oh, just what we needed, a little turbulence in the air travel industry. Hope those “support” efforts come with a side of irony and a nice cuppa to wash down the panic. 🛬💼

    Just what the world needed, another “bumpy ride” in the air! ✈️ If only they’d put as much effort into flying as they do at sending their thoughts and prayers, eh? 🙄

    Not exactly the kind of “direct flight” I’d prefer when heading to London, eh? Guess that’s one way to keep your frequent flyer miles in check. ✈️💼
