The official didn't further describe the aircraft. Internet sites say the the Tupolev as a Russian-built plane. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said it was not immediately clear how many people were aboard the planes, but it was possible they were carrying mostly freight. The planes went down near the city of Sigmariegen, near Lake Constance. aircraft wreckage was scattered for miles across the countryside, the spokesman said. State German ARD television interviewed one man who described the crash as two large balls of fire in the sky. No further information on the aircraft or passengers aboard was immediately available.
