Jan. 14 (UPI) -- An Iranian military plane crashed into a neighborhood in Alborz province Monday after it overshot a runway at the airport and killed nearly everyone on board, officials said.
The Boeing 707 was scheduled to arrive at Payam International Airport in Karaj but the pilot attempted to land at Fath Airport, 25 miles west of Tehran. Its runway is too short for large aircraft, Iranian state-owned Press TV reported.
