YAOUNDÉ, May 12, 2022 (BSS/AFP) - All 11 people on board a plane that crashed
in a forest in central Cameroon have died, state radio CRTV said Thursday.
"All perished in the disaster" on Wednesday, the presenter said.
A transport ministry official, speaking on condition of anonymity, told AFP:
"There were no survivors."
The plane had been chartered by a private company, the Cameroon Oil
Transportation Company (COTCO), which maintains a hydrocarbon pipeline
running to neighbouring Chad, official sources told AFP.
The plane, whose type and make were not made public, was flying from Yaounde-
Nsimalen airport to Belabo in the east of the country, the transport ministry
has said.
It was found in a forest near Nanga Eboko, some 150 km (90 miles) northeast
of Yaounde, it said.
