Small aircraft crashes into Beijing's tallest building, eyewitnesses say

A small aircraft, reportedly the size of a car, crashed into Beijing's tallest building, CITIC Tower, on Friday, according to eyewitnesses. The incident caused an immediate heavy police response, with roads around the skyscraper closed off and onlookers prevented from filming. The CITIC Tower, a 108-storey skyscraper in the central business district, serves as the headquarters for the state-owned CITIC Group. This event is alarming due to the potential safety implications and the need for urgent investigation into how such an accident could occur near a major business hub.
