Dreamliner, carrying 242 passengers and crew and headed for Britain’s Gatwick Airport, began losing altitude just seconds after takeoff.

Air India canceled multiple international flights due to operational challenges following the Ahmedabad crash, affecting routes including Ahmedabad to London and Delhi to Paris. Passengers are being provided with alternative arrangements and accommodation.

Video posted to social media shortly after the crash and verified by NBC News shows plumes of thick, black smoke to the south of the airport.
