"Cargo plane heading to Paloch in Upper Nile State crashed just 800 meters from Juba International Airport runway," Radio Miraya reported.
Juba: At least 25 people were killed on Wednesday when a plane crash-landed shortly after taking off from South Sudan's capital Juba, according to AFP.
Police were pulling the bodies of men, women and children out of the wreckage of the cargo plane, which crashed into a small farming community on a small island in the White Nile river, close to Juba airport, the reporter said, who counted at least 25 dead.
UN-backed radio said as many as 40 people were feared dead, adding that airport officials had told them only three passengers had survived.
