Pakistan Air jet carrying 152 passengers was crashed into the hills surrounding Pakistan's capital on Wednesday morning Jul 28 said officials.

Rescue workers tried best to reach the spot amidst heavy rain and difficult roads.

The cause of the crash is yet to confirm, said Pervez George, a civil aviation official. He also said the plane was flying from Karachi to Islamabad and was trying to land during difficult weather.
