It’s been just over an hour since we first reported an Air India plane crashed near the airport in Ahmedabad.

Here’s what we know so far:

• There were 242 people on board, including two pilots and 10 cabin crew

• Of the passengers, there were 169 Indian nationals, 53 British nationals, one Canadian national and seven Portuguese nationals

• The plane - a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner - gave a mayday call to air traffic control after taking off, but then gave no response

• Signal was lost seconds after take-off when the plane had reached 625 feet (190m), according to Flight Radar

• The plane came down in a residential area near the airport

“Everyone is running right now trying to save as many lives as possible,” the BBC’s Roxy Gagdekar reports from the scene
