New Delhi : An Afghan military plane has crashed in Uzbekistan, the Central Asian country's defence ministry said on Monday, confirming earlier reports.

"The military plane illegally crossed the border of Uzbekistan. An investigation is under way," ministry spokesman Bakhrom Zulfikarov told AFP, confirming Uzbek media reports of a crash taking place late Sunday in Uzbekistan's southern province of Surkhondaryo, which borders Afghanistan.

Zulfikarov said that an official statement on the crash report will be shared by the ministry.

Afghanistan government collapsed on Sunday after Ashraf Ghani left the nation and terrorist outfit Taliban entered the capital city Kabul.

People have been trying to flee from the nation to keep themselves safe from Taliban, who has announced an end of the war with Kabul in their control.
