Cargo plane crashes in Maidan Wardak
KABUL (Pajhwok): A
cargo plane has crashed in the Daimirdad district of central Maidan Wardak
province, officials said on Monday.
The crash took place late on Sunday
night, the governor's spokesman, Attaullah Khogyani, told Pajhwok Afghan News.
But he declined to give further details.
Din Mohammad Haqbin, the
administrative head of Daimirdad, said the aircraft made a hard landing in a
mountainous area 15 kilometres off the district centre.
A number of
individuals on board landed by parachutes before the plane crashed, he quoted
area residents as saying.
The International Security Assistance Force
(ISAF) confirmed receiving information about the crash.
In response to an
emailed query from this news agency, the NATO-led force said it had no
information on who owned the plane.
