At least 15 dead in Indonesia plane crash
A passenger plane carrying 27 people crashed today as it was about to land in bad weather in Indonesia’s eastern province of West Papua, killing at least 15, officials said.
Transportation ministry spokesman Bambang Ervan said the Chinese-made Xian MA60 twin-turboprop plane belonging to a state-owned airline went down just before landing in Kaimana. The flight originated in Sorong, another town in the province.
