US authorities said the plane was en route from Louisville to another domestic destination. It disappeared from radar screens minutes after takeoff before crashing in a wooded area on the outskirts of the state.

Rescue teams confirmed that the crash resulted in the complete destruction of the aircraft, complicating the identification of victims. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has launched an urgent investigation to determine the cause of the disaster. Initial indications suggest a sudden engine malfunction.

The incident brings to mind a series of similar accidents that have plagued the US air transport sector over the past two years. This comes amid growing calls for stricter safety measures on air cargo flights.
