Alaska authorities have begun an emergency search operation after a flight carrying 10 people went missing. According to state police, search and rescue teams are working to locate the last known coordinates of the aircraft, but harsh weather conditions may pose challenges.
The missing flight was reported to be crossing over isolated territory that is rather difficult to cover in the search. Alaska routes, especially in winter, suffer from limited visibility, severe cold, and unpredictable weather conditions.
Emergency teams, including the Alaska State Troopers and the U.S. Coast Guard, have been dispatched in search of the missing plane. Whether any distress signals had been received before the aircraft disappeared from the radar remains to be confirmed by officials.
The anxious families are waiting anxiously for updates, while authorities plead with caution as people begin speculating about the fate of those aboard.
This is a developing story. Stay tuned for updates.
