A video grab shows a woman crying at the site of a plane crash in Bishkek, Kyrgyzstan August 24, 2008. About 70 people, including members of a teenage basketball team, died on Sunday when a Kyrgyz airliner crashed in a ball of flames shortly after take-off from the Central Asian state's main airport. Kyrgyz officials, who issued conflicting reports on the death toll and number of people aboard the Boeing 737-200, said the blaze was so fierce many victims could not be identified.
