A United Airlines flight from Venice, Italy, struck a delivery lorry while landing at Newark Liberty International Airport (a major hub serving the New York City area), as captured on the vehicle's dashcam footage. The aircraft landed safely, with no injuries reported among the 231 passengers and crew on board, though the lorry driver sustained minor injuries. The US National Transportation Safety Board has launched an investigation and ordered United Airlines to hand over the cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder, while the airline's maintenance team assesses damage to the aircraft.
