Plane Crash Kills 14 in Brazilian Amazon
14 People Dead in Amazon Plane Crash
Bad Weather Blamed for Tragedy
Fourteen people have been killed in a plane crash in the Brazilian Amazon during bad weather on Saturday.
The small propeller plane was nearing the end of its flight when it crashed in the northern state of Amazonas, according to local officials.
The plane was carrying 14 passengers and crew and was on its way to the city of Manaus.
The cause of the crash is under investigation, but bad weather is believed to have been a factor.
This is the second plane crash in the Amazon rainforest in recent months. In May, a military plane crashed in the same region, killing all 15 people on board.
The Amazon rainforest is one of the most dangerous places in the world to fly due to the often-harsh weather conditions and the remote location of many airports.
