It was carrying 114 passengers and 11 crew members, according to the latest numbers released by the Colombian Air Force, which reported that at least 48 people had been rescued from the crash site and suffered injuries.<\/p>\n<p>Defense Minister Pedro S\u00e1nchez said on X that the &#8220;tragic accident&#8221; occurred in Puerto Leguizamo, a remote municipality in the Amazonian province of Putumayo, which borders Peru and Ecuador.<\/p>\n<p>Images shared online by local media outlets show a black cloud of smoke rising from a field where the plane crashed, and a truck with soldiers rushing to the site.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"embed embed--type-image is-image embed--float-none embed--size-medium\">\n<p>      <span class=\"img embed__content\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/03\/23\/dc4ef148-8948-43b8-9dcb-40fdcfc625f8\/thumbnail\/620x413\/1431f0ce876c75bdc84ff6ec6c495def\/gettyimages-2267588957.jpg#\" alt=\"TOPSHOT-COLOMBIA-ACCIDENT-DEFENCE \" height=\"413\" width=\"620\" class=\" lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets3.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/03\/23\/dc4ef148-8948-43b8-9dcb-40fdcfc625f8\/thumbnail\/620x413\/1431f0ce876c75bdc84ff6ec6c495def\/gettyimages-2267588957.jpg 1x, https:\/\/assets2.cbsnewsstatic.com\/hub\/i\/r\/2026\/03\/23\/dc4ef148-8948-43b8-9dcb-40fdcfc625f8\/thumbnail\/1240x826\/d0c2ef90b1039b99231fee1d45c58448\/gettyimages-2267588957.jpg 2x\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/span><figcaption class=\"embed__caption-container\">\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__caption\">Flames and thick black smoke rise from a Colombian Air Force plane that crashed during takeoff, as a member of the Colombian Police stands nearby, in Puerto Leguizamo, Colombia, on March 23, 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>                  <span class=\"embed__credit\"><\/p>\n<p>                Daniel Ortiz \/AFP via Getty Images<\/p>\n<p>                          <\/span><br \/>\n              <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>S\u00e1nchez did not specify the number of troops who were aboard the Hercules C-130, a plane that can be configured to carry up to 120 people.
