Plane Crashes Into Indian Ocean

A plane with 14 people on board crashed in the Indian Ocean archipelago.

Gatekeepers News reports that the Comorian transport ministry said in a statement that its small Cessna plane disappeared from the radar about 2.5 kilometres (1.6 miles) from its destination during its flight between the capital Moroni and the city of Fomboni on the island of Moheli.

“Search operations have begun to find the aircraft’s debris in the coastal area of Djoiezi,” the statement read in part.

The Comorian government confirmed that the 12 passengers on board were Comorian, while the two pilots were Tanzanian.
