Yet another aviation disaster, as a Ukrainian cargo plane crashed in South Sudan shortly after take-off.

A Soviet-era Antonov-12 transport plane crashed near the International airport in the South Sudan capital of Juba on Wednesday shortly after taking off. The plane crashed into a nearby farming community, killing at least three dozen people.

All the victims recorded so far were from the airplane, with only one young boy surviving the crash, according to the BBC.

The plane had a six man crew, five Armenian and one Russian- all of whom perished in the crash. All its passengers were South Sudanese nationals, whilst the company in charge admits the plane was not plane worthy.

A statement from Antonov said the plane “was is no state to fly because it failed to undergo timely technical servicing… that should have included work on extending its resources and exploitation timeframe” AFP news agency reported.
