Colombian military plane crashes, killing at least 66

A military transport plane crashed in Colombia on March 24, killing at least 66 passengers. The Lockheed Martin Hercules C-130 plane that reportedly suffered an impact near the runway as it took off from a a city near the Peruvian border, fell from the sky in a remote area, impeding rescue efforts. The event prompted calls from Colombian President Gustavo Petro to modernise the country's ageing military--a process he says has been hamstrung by bureaucratic obstacles.
