Dozens of passengers were injured on a flight from Madrid to Uruguay after the plane hit strong turbulence and had to make an emergency landing in Brazil. The Boeing plane experienced severe turbulence, causing at least 30 people to be injured and the inside of the cabin to sustain damage. Passengers reported that the plane suddenly destabilized, causing people without seat belts to hit the ceiling and sustain injuries. The injured passengers are being treated at a hospital in Brazil, with some suffering from fractures and injuries to their arms, faces, and legs. Despite the terrifying experience, all passengers are grateful that the situation did not result in any fatalities. The incident highlights the importance of always wearing seat belts during flights to minimize injury risks during turbulence. CNN Newsource and Gray News contributed to this report.
