At least 45 people have been killed and dozens injured after a Philippines Air Force plane carrying troops crashed on landing and burst into flames. At least 45 people have been killed and dozens injured after a Philippines Air Force plane carrying troops crashed on landing and burst into flames. The incident happened on Sunday in Patikul in the southern Sulu province, where the plane missed the runway, according to an official Pictures from the scene showed flames and smoke pouring from wreckage strewn among trees as men in combat uniform milled around. A large column of black smoke rose into the sky above houses located near the crash site Initial pictures released by the military showed the tail section of the cargo plane which crashed around midday on Sunday The Hercules was one of two ex-U.S. Air Force aircraft handed over to the Philippines as part of military assistance this year. Pictured: Army personnel at the site after the crash landing of the Lockheed C-130 in Bangkal village in the mountainous town of Patikul in the southern Sulu province The tail of the plane can be seen among other burned and scattered parts in a clearing surrounded by coconut trees Soldiers and other rescuers with stretchers are seen dashing into and from the smoke-shrouded crash site The four-engine plane crashed near a quarry in a lightly populated area, First Lieutenant Jerrica Angela Manongdo said. Onlookers watch smoke rising following the fatal crash of the plane, which had been carrying nearly 100 people, including three pilots who survived but are seriously injured The crash happened in the far south of the archipelago nation where the army has been fighting a long war against Islamist militants from the Abu Sayyaf and other factions President Rodrigo Duterte expanded the military presence in Sulu into a full division in late 2018, deploying hundreds of additional troops, air force aircraft and other combat equipment after vowing to wipe out the Abu Sayyaf and allied foreign and local gunmen. Hercules aircraft, the work horses of the air force, are used to transport troops and supplies. They are also often deployed to deliver humanitarian assistance and disaster relief Dailymail UK https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gys5umjWGJQ
