Cargo

plane crashes near Kabul

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A

cargo plane is reported to have crashed 20km north of the Afghan capital,

Kabul.

An Afghan security official at Kabul airport told the BBC there

were no survivors. Ten people were on board, international peacekeepers said.

 

The International Security Assistance Force and the US-led

coalition both said the plane was not theirs.

The cause of the crash, which occurred in the Farza area of the

Shomali plains, is not yet known.

Squadron Leader Annie Gibson-Sexton, a spokeswoman for Isaf,

said rescuers had reached the site but she could not confirm casualties.

Initial reports had said the plane was a C-130 transport plane

but reports now suggest it was Soviet built.
