Somalia AU plane 'catches fire'
« on: March 09, 2007, 12:44:02 PM »
A cargo plane transporting Ugandan soldiers to Somalia's capital caught fire as it landed at Mogadishu's airport, officials say.
A Somali Islamic group has claimed it shot at the aircraft, but Uganda's army spokesman told the BBC investigations so far suggest a technical problem.

Paddy Ankunda said none of the seven soldiers on board were injured.
