An aircraft carrying Malawi's Vice-President Saulos Chilima and nine others has gone missing, Caspian Energy Media reports with reference to BBC.
The Malawi Defence Force aircraft "went off the radar" after it left the capital, Lilongwe, on Monday morning.
The plane was supposed to land at Mzuzu International Airport, in the country’s north, just after 10:00 local time (09:00 BST).
In a speech late on Monday, President Lazarus Chakwera said a search and rescue operation was continuing.
