Somalia plane: Video shows hole in fuselage

Footage has emerged from inside a plane showing a gaping hole in the aircraft's fuselage.

The hole appeared shortly after take-off from Mogadishu, Somalia, at 10,000ft (3,048m), forcing it to make an emergency landing.

The video was taken by Awale Kullane, Somalia's deputy ambassador to the United Nations.

It is not clear what caused the damage, although there are reports it may have been a bomb. Officials say two passengers were hurt.
