Algerian Air Force transport crash in France

An Algerian transport aircraft, believed to be a C-295, came down yesterday afternoon in the Lozere, just West of where I reside.

Crash d'un avion de fret militaire algérien en Lozère

There was said to be two military personnel (presumably the crew), and four civilian pax, all of whom perished. The flight had left Le Bourget, and was believed to be carrying paper destined for banknote printing.
There is no news of any distress call, and it crashed in hilly terrain around 3000' ASL.
