The US Coast Guard announced the suspension of search and rescue operations for a medical jet that went missing while traveling from Bermuda to Boston. The aircraft, which was carrying six people, vanished from radar before debris was discovered in the waters off the coast of Nantucket, Massachusetts.

Search crews spent hours scouring the area after the plane lost contact, but officials ultimately determined that the likelihood of finding survivors was low given the conditions and the time elapsed since the crash. The recovery of debris confirmed that the aircraft had impacted the water, though the specific cause of the crash remains under investigation by aviation authorities. The identities of those on board have not been immediately released to the public, as officials focus on notifying the families involved. The suspension of the search marks the end of the active rescue phase, shifting the focus toward recovery efforts and a formal investigation into the circumstances surrounding the flight's disappearance.
