"LUANDA, Angola (AP) - An Angolan Airlines plane has crashed while landing at an airport in northern Angola.

The official Angop news agency says at least six people have been killed.

Angop says the Boeing 737 carrying 78 people crashed after landing at an airport in M'banza Congo, a town about 300 kilometres north of the capital, Luanda.

Officials could not immediately confirm the accident.

However, Angop says the plane landed halfway down the runway and bounced out of control before crashing into a house.

The injured were taken to a hospital in the nearest city, called Zaire.

The European Union announced Thursday it was adding the Angolan flag-carrier, called TAAG, to its revised international blacklist.

The airline will be barred from flying to the European Union because of safety concerns, the European Commission said." Courtesy: AP
