An Airbus A400M military transport plane carrying "eight to 10" people crashed near Seville in southern Spain today while apparently on a test flight, officials said.

"The plane that crashed a mile north of Seville airport in an non-residential area was not a commercial craft," said a spokesman for the regional emergency services. Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy said there were "eight to 10 people on board".
