MOSCOW (AFP) – A Russian cargo plane
crashed into a military warehouse complex
in Siberia on Thursday, killing all nine people
all board, the emergencies ministry said.
The Antonov An-12 military transport plane,
flying from the Siberian city of Novosibirsk
with cargo on board, crashed into storage
warehouses at a military unit near Irkutsk,
another Siberian city.
“There were nine people on board, they all
died,” the emergencies ministry said in a
statement.
A defence ministry spokesman said the
airplane destroyed the roofs of two
buildings where auto parts were stored. No
injuries were reported among the military
personnel on the ground, he told Russian
agencies.
The Interfax news agency reported that the
plane had crashed into warehouses
containing ammunition.
An emergencies ministry spokesman could
not immediately confirm the report.
The plane belonged to an aircraft maker in
Irkutsk.
