Polish president killed in plane crash!!!!

The president, 60, had been traveling with the Polish delegation to Russia for the 70th anniversary of the massacre of Polish prisoners of war in the village of Katyn.

The Polish military plane originated in Warsaw. It was approaching the airport at Smolensk, just a few miles east of Katyn and probably hit some trees at the end of the runway, and this disaster happened.

yup, you are right .i saw that news.plane crashed 400 km from Moscow due heavy fog. :(
it was flying from Warsaw to Moscow.

Oh..Really sad to knew that many high officials of a country lost lives in a single accident.

It is really a shocking news. It shows the uncertainty of life.

A very grim tragedy,indeed! My heart reach out to the members of the family of the deceased.Here I record my condolences.May the departed souls rest in peace!

Yes that's a sad news that was flashing in news channels. May souls of all who lost life in this tragedy rest in peace.

This crashed ravaged the top levels of Poland's military, political and church elite Saturday, killing the Polish president and dozens of other dignitaries as they traveled to a ceremony commemorating a slaughter that has divided the two nations for seven decades.
Thousands of people, many in tears, placed candles and flowers at the presidential palace in central Warsaw. Many called the crash Poland's worst disaster since World War II.

The crash also shocked Russia. Sensing the depth of the tragedy for Poland, Prime Minister Vladimir Putin personally took charge of the investigation and very quickly and publicly offered condolences, along with Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.

It was a shocking accident. Lot of top officials. Too much for a country to bear. my deep condolences to the polish people

The airplane crash killing so many top leaders of Poland is indeed shocking. While we mourn death of the precious lives, we should also draw lessons in India from the incident. The top dignitaries should not be traveling in a single plane.

Its really sad and bad for poland country that they lost president as well as many top government officials.Its seems to political issue i listened in the news is that right.

This is highly sad news for Polish people.A deep condolence to the Polish people and family members of the president and other killed people families.

Poland is the favorite counrty of India.

From the latest news, it is learned that Russian ATC or Air Traffic Control has warned the pilot that local weather was below the permissible level.It seems that the wrong decision of the pilot is the reason for this tragic accident.

A single wrong decision can take lives of many!!!!!
What a fate!

Yes Deepti- A single decision may affect many. when we move out from home, our security on road and in buildings every where is endangered. There are traffic, fire and other hazards.

Yes... thats true Gulshan..

Same case has happened in the case of Andhra's CM Y.S.Raja Shekar Reddy on 1st September 2009!!!

This very place Katyn seems to be a jinxed one.This is the very place where Stalin orgnaized one of the worst massacres by excuting 20000 Poles and the late President with his entourage was on his way to pay his respects!

its an pitty thing
