There was no immediate word on survivors. Rescuers circled the crash site in a helicopter, but low clouds and drizzle made it difficult to see and impossible to land, Regional Police Com mander Juma Ng’amag’waka said. The flight was en route from the park to Kili manjaro International Airport (KIA) in Tanzania to connect with another flight going to Nairobi, Kenya. “The plane has been located, but it’s night now, and I don’t think we will have any more in formation tonight. I don’t know anything about survivors,” Ng’amag’waka said. “We have sent rescue teams there, including detectives. ” Margaret Munyagi, head of the Tanzanian Civil Aviation Authority, said the pilot of the Northern Air charter did not report any prob lems to the control tower. “The pilot communicated with the con trollers at KIA about 15 minutes before he was due to land around 10:30 a.m.,” she said. Arusha-based Northern Air refused to comment. In neighboring Kenya, Isabel Mbugua of the African Medical Research Foundation, an air rescue organization, sent a helicopter and a medical rescue team to the site, 125 miles soutli of Nairobi. She said nearby villagers spotted the downed aircraft on a lower slope of the 15,067-foot mountain. Mount Meru is located slightly north of Arusha, where most safaris to the Serengeti, Mount Kili manjaro and the Ngorongoro Crater begin. Mbugua said bad weather prevented the res cue helicopter from landing at the crash site, and a medical team was on its way there in four- wheel-drive vehicles. She said the pilot, whom she contacted by radio, said there was movement at the site. It was not clear, however, who or what was mov ing — survivors or villagers. “They are hoping they have survivors,” she said.

Helicopter gunships, artillery and rockets hammered two near by mountainous villages where the militants, who had imposed strict Islamic law in the area, were hold ing out for a fourth day. Russian forces estimated that more than 80 rebels have been killed, but that number could not be independently confirmed. Israel, Palestine near security de JERUSALEM (AP) — Working hard to overcome llth-hour snags, Israelis and Palestinians approached agreement yesterday on a land-for- security deal that set a one-year deadline for end ing decades of hostility. On a day marked both by shouted ultima tums and grins of optimism, the sides cleared all but one hurdle to reviving the U.S.-brokered Wye ac cord hours before Secretary of State Madeleine Albright was to arrive in the region. ALBRIGHT “There is a desire to have peace" Albright told reporters as she flew to Morocco yesterday. "There is a sense we have to move on. And what 1 want to do is to play a fruitful role." The issue that still threatened a planned signing ceremony in Egypt, to be attended by Albright, was the number of Palestinians in Israeli jails to be released. Negotia tors said the difference was down to just 30: Israel was ready to re lease 370 prisoners; the Palestini ans insisted on 400. T\vo items that had vexed Prime Minister Ehud Barak s pledge to re vive Wye were resolved: a timetable for an Israeli withdrawal from 13 percent more of the West Bank and a deadline fora: tus agreement. The new deadline fora: nent Palestinian-lsraeli i would be a year after there-, of Wye — meaning Sep 2000 if all goes well this we-: “We hope we will reach; sion of the present negoha: in the next few hours," Pale- leader Yasser Arafat told rep: The Hague, where he me Dutch Prime Minister Wim) Palestinian officials said a call from President Clinton" ed Arafat to cut that visit si: return to the region todirecr gotiators.
