Four people have died after a Saudi registered private jet crash-landed in a car auction site and burst into flames as it approached a runway in Britain's Hampshire.
The Phenom 300 jet crashed shortly after 3pm at Blackbushe Airport.
Hampshire Police Acting chief inspector Olga Venner speaking from the scene, said: "We can confirm that there were four people on board, including the pilot.
Unconfirmed British media reports said the plane had been carrying members of the family of al-Qaeda leader Osama Bin Laden, who was shot dead by US forces in Pakistan in 2011.
In a statement, an airport spokesman said: "Blackbushe Airport confirmed that a Phenom 300 jet with four persons on board crashed near the end of the runway around 3.09pm while attempting to make a landing.
"The scene was attended by Blackbushe Fire and Rescue within minutes, followed by Hampshire fire, police and ambulance units. Emergency services are currently controlling the scene."
Sources said the jet had flown from Milan in Italy and was attempting to land.
Saudi General Authority of Civil Aviation issued a tweet saying that the aircraft was Saudi registered.
