    A plane carrying 104 passengers has crashed shortly after taking off from Jose Marti airport in Cuba’s capital, Havana, according to state media.

    A Boeing 737 crashed “near the international airport” on Friday, state agency Prensa Latina reported.

    The aircraft was heading from the capital to the eastern city of Holguin, it added.

    A message posted on Twitter by Prensa Latina showed a thick column of smoke rising into the sky.

    Fire crews and ambulances are at the scene, the agency reported.

    Cuba’s President Miguel Diaz-Canel, who went to visit the scene, said there was a “high number” of casualties, according to AFP news agency.

    “There has been an unfortunate aviation accident. The news is not very promising, it seems that there is a high number of victims,” Diaz-Canel was quoted as saying.
