The furious dispute over what caused Air India flight 171 to crash | BBC News

On 12 June 2025, a London-bound Boeing 787 Dreamliner crashed seconds after taking off from Ahmedabad in western India, killing at least 260 people, including 241 passengers and crew on board.

Investigators have yet to publish their final findings into the cause of the crash.

A preliminary report into the incident from India's Aircraft Accident Investigation Bureau found both of the plane's fuel switches moved to the "cut-off" position "immediately" after take-off, stopping fuel supply to the engine.

What is not clear however, is what actually caused the crash.
