ShutterstockA plane crashed in eastern Afghanistan's Ghazni province Monday, officials said, but it was not immediately clear how many people were on board, or if it was a passenger or military jet. "At around 1:10 pm (0840 GMT) a plane crashed in Deh Yak district of Ghazni province. Large swathes of rural areas in Ghazni province are controlled or under the influence of Taliban militants, making access difficult for officials. "All the flights of Ariana Afghan Airlines have been completed normally," a statement on the carrier's verified Facebook page read. And Ariana Afghan Airlines have reassured us that all their planes are accounted for," said the organisation.
