In a condolence message, she also extended sympathy to the families of the victims on behalf of the government and the people, her press wing said on Friday.

Hasina wished the injured a quick recovery.

An Air India Express plane, which was repatriating Indians stranded from Dubai due to the COVID-19 pandemic, overshot the runway of the Calicut International Airport in heavy rain near the southern city of Kozhikode last Friday, killing 18 people.
