22:10 Al-Jazeera doesn`t mention casualties on exploded U.S. plane at Qatar base (DPA)

It’s now on CNN wire service. BN wire ambiguous, suggesting a crash landing.

“Explodes on landing” probably = something like overrunning the runway and catching fire when it cracked up. Hopefully the crew is all right.

cnn reporting same. B-52 explosion on landing in Quatar.
DUBAI (Reuters) - A U.S. B-52 bomber exploded while landing in a Qatari air base due to a technical fault on Friday, Qatar-based Al Jazeera television reported.
The television did not say if anyone was hurt in the incident at the base south of the Qatari capital Doha.
A U.S. air force spokesman said he had no immediate report of such an incident and would check.

Is CNN independently reporting the story or are they reporting that Al-Jazeera is reporting the story? Looks like the latter to me.

Gee, they know this quickly that it is due to a technical fault? Waiting for more reliable source.
