YANGON, Myanmar (AP) — A Myanmar military spokesman says a transport plane with more than 100 people on board has gone missing on a flight from the country’s south to Yangon.

Gen. Myat Min Oo said the Chinese-made Y-8 aircraft was carrying 90 passengers — mostly families of military personnel — and 14 crew members when it went missing Wednesday afternoon.
