6 dead after light aircraft crashes in Kenya’s capital
A small plane carrying medical staff crashes in a densely-populated neighborhood in Kenya's capital on Aug. 7, 2025, killing six people, local authorities said. The Cessna plane, run by AMREF Flying Doctors, came down as it was flying to Hargeisa, the capital of Somalia's breakaway territory of Somaliland, the charity said in a statement. Kiambu County Commissioner Henry Wafula said the four people on board and two people on the ground were killed. The Kenya Civil Aviation Authority said the plane took off from Wilson Airport at 2:14 p.m. (local time) and lost contact with air traffic control three minutes later.
