Cargo
Boeing 747 crashes at Bagram Airfield
A
civilian cargo aircraft crashed at Bagram Air Field near the Afghan
capital Kabul on Monday, killing all seven people aboard.
The
plane came down shortly after take-off and crashed within the
boundaries of the US-run airbase, a NATO spokesperson at the base
said.
The
Taliban quickly claimed responsibility for the crash, but the
coalition dismissed the claim as "false" in a statement to
AP.
The
cause of the crash is being investigated by emergency crews, but no
sign of insurgent activity in the area was spotted at the time, the
statement added.
