A Turkish Airlines plane has crashed on landing at Amsterdam's Schiphol international airport, according to the BBC.
The plane, with 135 passengers on board, crashed near the A9 motorway and suffered significant damage.
It was Flight 1951 from Istanbul and was a 737-800 aircraft.
One person has been killed, and 20 passengers were injured. But Turkish media said at least 50 people had survived unhurt and some 20 people were seen walking away from the plane.
The BBC's Geraldine Coughlan in the Hague says Dutch television has been showing pictures of helicopters at the scene, with about 20 ambulances and fire engines.
Schiphol is the fifth-largest passenger airport in Europe.
