He said it was unclear if passengers were killed or injured. It wasn't immediately known how many passengers were on board.

Angsuwan told TITV that there was heavy rain when flight OG269 of Orient Thai Airways traveling from Bangkok to Phuket attempted to make a landing.

"The visibility was poor as the pilot attempted to land. He decided to make a go-around but the plane lost balance and crashed. It was torn into two parts," he said
