Scores die in freak air tragedy
More than 120 people are feared dead in the Democratic Republic of Congo after being sucked out of a cargo plane.
Military officials are quoted as saying that the rear ramp of a plane became detached soon after it had taken off from the capital, Kinshasa, on an internal flight.
Airport sources told the BBC in Kinshasa that only the Russian crew members survived.
An inquiry is said to be under way.
