Baghdad-INA
A small private plane has crashed into an empty building in Milan, killing all eight people on board.
The plane took off from Milan's Linate airport and was heading for the island of Sardinia, but it came down soon after on the outskirts of the city.
Witnesses described hearing a loud blast as it struck a two-storey office block and burst into flames.
One of those killed in the incident was a young boy, local media reported.
A thick column of smoke was seen rising in the air, though no one on the ground was reported injured.
