Small Plane Hits Beijing Skyscraper, Sparking 9/11 Comparisons
A small aircraft reportedly struck China’s tallest building, the 109-story CITIC Tower in Beijing, on Friday afternoon. Social media footage captured debris and a tail section falling from the skyscraper, and emergency services responded to the scene. While authorities have not issued an official statement, flight data suggests the aircraft, possibly a Sunward SA 60L Aurora, deviated significantly from its flight path after departing from a local airport. This incident is particularly alarming given strict new regulations banning drone usage in the capital.
