                     Ecuador Military Plane Crash Kills 22

   by VOA News

   A military plane carrying 22 people crashed Tuesday in Ecuador's Amazon
   region, southeast of the capital of Quito.

   "There are no survivors. Our embrace of solidarity to the families and
   the armed forces. It is a tragedy," President Rafael Correa said on
   Twitter.

   Ecuador's army said the 19 parachutists on board the Israeli-made Arava
   cargo plane were carrying out training exercises when the aircraft
   crashed.

   The cause of the accident is unknown.
