Malawi’s Vice President Saulos Chilima and 9 other people including his wife have been killed when the plane they were travelling in crashed in the Chikangawa mountain range.

The confirmation came after more than a day-long search effort in a forested area in the mountains of northern Malawi.

President Lazarus Chakwera has declared today a national day of mourning.

The military plane crashed on Monday after it took off from the country’s capital Lilongwe.
