A photograph taken with a mobile phone shows civilians gathering near the burning wreckage of the military cargo plane that crashed in Kinshasa, Democratic Republic of Congo, on September 30, 2017.
A military cargo plane crashed in Congo’s capital Kinshasa on Saturday, killing the crew, the director of the city’s main airport said.
It was unclear how many crewmembers were on board.
“There was a crash of a cargo plane. It’s a military plane," George Tabora, the director of Kinshasa's N’Djili Airport, said. “It wasn’t transporting passengers. The crew did not survive the crash.”
