Updated just now – In a major development surrounding the mysterious incident on Air India Flight 171, investigators have confirmed they’ve recovered the captain’s personal phone from the wreckage — and what they discovered inside is sending shockwaves across the globe.

According to official sources, the phone was found lodged beneath a seat in the cockpit, remarkably still intact despite the devastating condition of the aircraft. What’s most chilling? The last text message sent from the captain’s phone has just been made public — and it consists of exactly five words.

Police say the message was sent just minutes before contact was lost with Air India 171. While the identity of the recipient has not been disclosed, the message itself reads:

“I won’t make it back.”

Authorities are currently analyzing the full contents of the device to understand the circumstances behind the flight’s final moments. Aviation experts are calling the message “haunting” and “unlike anything they’ve seen in recent investigations.”

“This changes everything,” said one investigator. “That message confirms the captain was fully aware of the situation, and possibly trying to warn someone close to him in his final seconds.”
