Six dead in Libyan military plane crash in Cameroon
A Libyan military cargo plane crashed Sunday in the Cameroonian town of Kousseri near the border with Chad, killing all six crew, the town's deputy mayor told AFP.
The plane, which had come from Libya, apparently missed its landing at the nearby airport of the Chadian capital N'Djamena and came down shortly after 5:00 am (0400 GMT) in a district of Kousseri, Kamssouloun Abba Kebir said.
The plane burst into flames on impact but nobody on the ground was hurt, he said.
