A social media video purportedly shows the remains of a U.S. military Bombardier E-11A aircraft at a crash site in Afghanistan's Taliban-controlled Ghazni province

KABUL/WASHINGTON - A plane which U.S. officials described as a small U.S. military aircraft crashed in a Taliban-controlled area of central Afghanistan on Monday, and the insurgent group claimed to have brought it down.

The U.S. officials, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said there were no indications so far that the plane had been brought down by enemy activity. One of the officials said there were believed to be fewer than 10 people on board. Senior Afghan officials told Reuters the authorities had rushed local personnel to locate and identify the wreckage, in a mountainous area partly controlled by the Taliban. Reuters journalists filmed Afghan soldiers heading toward the snow-covered mountains where the plane crashed in Ghazni province.

Mujahid did not say how fighters had brought the plane down. He said the crew on board included high ranking U.S. officers. A senior defense official denied that senior American officers were involved.

Did that actually make someone unsee the tail number on the plane in the video when you added 'purportedly' to the description of it? Right. So then why does MSM do that?

The US supported the Taliban. The US supports the neo-Nazi groups who led the coup in Ukraine, and who could easily be behind the latest example of the inhuman Western sabotage of airplanes in Iran

That is not what a plane that was shot down looks like.

Ooooo lets see how Trump reacts to this as surely someone flew the plane.

That plane looks like it was intact when it crashed. The fire looks like it did most of the damage. It doesn’t look like it was shot down

RIP to our brave airmen

Hum seams the military isn't to worried about what was on the plane for they would've leveled the place...
