An Ariana Afghan Airlines passenger plane has crashed in Ghazni province in Afghanistan, local sources told The National on Monday.
Arif Noori, the spokesperson for the provincial governor of Afghanistan, confirmed the crash.
The state-owned airlines plane was carrying 83 people and reportedly crashed 15 kilometres from the centre of Deh Yak district of Ghazni.
The flight was between Kabul to Herat in the north-west. The province is under the control of the Taliban and therefore access for rescue teams will likely need to be negotiated.
There is no official indication of injuries or fatalities.
