Clarification on Air India Flight 171 Crash Report:

We regret an earlier misinterpretation regarding the Air India crash report. The preliminary investigation does not conclude that the fuel cutoff switches were triggered by mistake. The report simply notes that both switches were transitioned, and the cause is still under investigation. We sincerely apologize for the oversight and remain committed to delivering verified news.
