State media says southern Sudan's defense minister, Dominic Dim Deng, has been killed along with 20 others in a plane crash.
The incident occured in a remote southern region of Sudan. SUNA news agency reports said the pilot had radioed a control tower in the city of Rumbek just before Friday's crash, requesting permission to land because one of the engines had technical problems. A few minutes later, the tower lost contact with the plane.
