Pakistani Plane Crash Kills At Least 11

A cargo plane crashed into a residential area of Pakistan's largest city, sparking a huge blaze and causing at least 11 casualties.

The aircraft came down in Karachi with eight crew on board, less than two minutes after taking off.

All eight, including six Pakistanis, are thought to have died in the crash, with at least three casualties on the ground.

The plane crashed in a housing complex for naval officers in the neighbourhood of Dalmai, it is reported.

Reporters at the scene said several buildings were on fire and loud explosions could be heard.
