It added: “LATAM regrets the inconvenience and injury this situation may have caused its passengers, and reiterates its commitment to safety as a priority within the framework of its operational standards.”

Around 50 people were assessed and treated at the scene, with one person in a serious condition and the remainder in a moderate to minor condition.
