An Azerbaijani cargo plane carrying supplies for the NATO mission in Afghanistan crashed into treacherous mountains killing all nine crew on board outside the Afghan capital Kabul, officials said Wednesday. The plane took off from Baku at 9:26 pm Tuesday (1626 GMT) with 18 tons of supplies for the US-led mission and crashed as it tried to land at Bagram air base to the north of Kabul, officials said. “Our teams have recovered the wreckage of the plane. Unfortunately all nine crew members have been killed, there are no survivors,” said Afghan transport ministry spokesman Nangyalai Qalatwal.
