The reason for the accident remains unclear
A total of 17 people were injured as a result of the incident. The majority of the passengers were taken to Zurich on a special flight on December 24. The reason why smoke started appearing in the Airbus A220 is still being determined, Swiss said on Wednesday in response to a ‘Krone’ request.
