Air Algérie Crash: Swiftair sentenced to 225,000 euros, 12 years after the tragedy

French justice sentenced Spanish company Swiftair to a fine of 225,000 euros, twelve years after the 2014 crash of flight AH5017 in Mali. The Paris correctional court found Swiftair guilty of involuntary manslaughter due to negligence in crew training, which contributed to the accident. The crash, which resulted in 116 deaths, occurred shortly after takeoff from Ouagadougou, with all passengers and crew members killed. The ruling concludes the French criminal proceedings against the company but leaves unanswered questions and deep human impacts.
