All 68 people on board a passenger plane that crashed in central Cuba were killed, the country's civil aviation authority has said.
The aircraft, belonging to the state-run Aerocaribbean airline, was flying from the eastern city of Santiago de Cuba to the capital Havana when it went down, according to state media.
The French-built ATR twin turboprop crashed late on Thursday near the town of Guasimal in Santi Spiritus province, with 61 passengers and seven crew on board.
Rescuers had to use a bulldozer to plough through thick vegetation to reach the crash site.
The passengers reportedly included 28 foreigners - including people from Latin American, Europe and Japan.
The twice-weekly flight had originated in Port-au-Prince in Haiti and stopped over in Santiago.
The pilot reported an emergency before contact was lost.
