At least seven people have died after a cargo plane exploded into a fireball in Kentucky, with the death toll expected to rise.
Authorities say eleven people were injured in the blast, which happened as the aircraft was taking off from Louisville International Airport on Tuesday.
Four of those killed were not on the plane, according to officials.
Flames and a trail of smoke could be seen coming from the plane’s left wing during take off. Footage showed it lifting slightly off the ground before crashing back down.
