Tehran, (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 14th Jan, 2019 ) :A military cargo plane crashed near the Iranian capital Tehran with 10 people onboard, state tv reported Monday.
"The plane was a cargo Boeing 707 that overshot the runway during its landing," Iran's aviation organisation spokesman Reza Jafarzadeh told state broadcaster IRIB.
