A military plane in Indonesia carrying more than 100 people crashed in East Java on May 19, 2009. It is believed that more than half of the passengers died and those who survived suffered serious burn injuries. Indonesian authorities believe the death toll is expected to rise.

As the plane prepared to land in Iswahyudi Military Airbase, the C130 cargo plane plowed on several houses and burst into flames, killing several people on the ground. Photos of the crash site in the Indonesian TV showed the burning plane and some of the injured victims. The cause of the crash is still to be determined. (Photo Credit: Bental_3000)=0=
