Doomed cargo plane door opens over Congo killing many
A Russian Ilyushin 76 cargo plane departing Kinshasa reversed to the airport after its rear door burst open at 33 000 feet. Dozens of soldiers and family members were killed or critically injured as people were sucked from the aircraft. Survivors and officials report unclear death toll with 129 feared dead at first but later estimates lower.
