## Resource

A small plane reportedly nosedived into Beijing’s iconic CITIC Tower, sparking evacuations and chaos as witnesses filmed the crash and shared shaky footage online. Authorities scrambled to secure the scene, while officials remained tight-lipped about the pilot’s identity, the cause of the crash, or whether anyone was hurt. The tower’s glass facade now bears a visible hole, and police urged bystanders to stop taking photos. With Beijing’s airspace under strict control, especially after recent drone bans, the incident has raised serious questions — and the investigation is still unfolding.
