BEIRUT (AP) — A Lebanese aviation official says an Ethiopian Airlines plane that disappeared from radar shortly after takeoff from Beirut has probably crashed into the sea.

The plane was carrying 83 passengers and nine crew. The official spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak to the media.

The plane was headed to Ethiopia. About 50 of the passengers were Lebanese, the official said.
