6 people killed. Photo looks horrendous as the plane overturned and caught fire :(

Rest in Peace.

First reports said 10 dead - 14 injured and there weren't that many on board...

I think it has finally been confirmed as 12 on board and 6 dead, of the remaining 6, 2 were critically injured and I think 2 were walking wounded and another 2 were completely fine. Quite a miracle that anyone survived really. As you say Jiggy, I can't even bgein to imagine how frightening that must have been, especially as it was the 3rd attempt to land too.
