A military aircraft crashes in the Democratic Republic of Congo, killing at least 13 people, according to multiple reports. Several senior military figures are among those reported dead.
The outlets describe the crash site as being in or near a residential area, with the wreckage causing significant damage. One account says victims and the aircraft are “burned beyond recognition,” emphasizing the severity of the fire after the crash.
While the reports largely agree on the death toll and that senior officers are killed, they differ mainly in wording and details about the condition of the victims and the location’s description (such as “residential plot” versus “residential area”). The sources do not provide consistent information on the flight origin, cause of the crash, or number of people on board beyond the reported fatalities.
