  "account": "On Monday at 4 p.m. EDT, the US National Transportation Safety Board will host a media briefing to provide the latest updates on the tragic Amazon Prime Air cargo plane crash that occurred at Miami International Airport on Sunday. The incident, which claimed five lives and left five others injured, including three in critical condition, occurred when Prime Air Flight 7598 veered off the airport's diagonal runway just before 2 p.m. EDT and struck several vehicles on the ground.\n\nAccording to officials, at least two people were trapped in the struck vehicles while the pilot, co-pilot, and several others were confined inside the aircraft following the crash. Miami-Dade Fire Chief Ray Jadallah reported that over 60 rescue units and approximately 200 personnel were dispatched to the scene. As of late Sunday, emergency personnel were still grappling with a fuel leak emanating from the aircraft.\n\nThe National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) had declared a go team to investigate the accident, according to a post on X earlier in the day. Although the airport immediately suspended all flight operations post-crash, they were back in operation by Sunday evening. However, the crash has had lasting implications for travelers at Miami International Airport. As of noon EDT on Monday, inbound flights were experiencing an average delay of over five hours, and 232 flights had been canceled in the preceding 24 hours, as reported by the flight-tracking website FlightAware.\n\nThe aircraft involved in the incident was a 32-year-old Boeing 767-300 freighter that had previously functioned as a passenger jet for various airlines between 1994 and 2015. Flightradar24 captured images of the plane moments after the crash, revealing its nose firmly on the ground, tail elevated, and the right side displaying scorch marks. These photos clearly illustrated the severity of the collision.",
