The governing body for figure skating in the United States confirmed that athletes, coaches and family members were returning from the national development camp held in conjunction with the US championships in Kansas.

“We are devastated by this unspeakable tragedy and hold the victims’ families closely in our hearts,” it said in a statement. “We will continue to monitor the situation and will release more information as it becomes available.” A source told Reuters that as many as 15 people on the flight may have been involved in figure skating.
