N'DJAMENA, Chad (AP) - A military transport plane crashed as it tried to land at an unlit airport at night in Chad's main eastern city, killing five people, a government spokesman said Monday.
However, Chad rebels claimed that they shot the C-130 military plane down Sunday at Abeche airport, about 550 miles east of the capital, N'djamena, using a surface-to-air missile.
Government spokesman Hourmadji Moussa Doumgor denied that the plane was shot down.
