On a fateful day in Kazakhstan, a plane belonging to Azerbaijan Airlines tragically crashed near the Aktau airport. The aircraft was carrying 72 passengers at the time of the incident, and it is believed that there may have been survivors among the wreckage. However, the country's emergency ministry has reported that many are feared dead.
According to reports, the plane was on its way from the capital city of Baku in Azerbaijan to Grozny, Russia. However, due to thick fog, the flight was forced to change its course. It was during this diversion that the tragedy occurred, just yards away from the Aktau airport.
Disturbing footage has emerged showing the moment the plane began its descent and ultimately burst into flames upon impact with the ground. The emergency services were quick to arrive at the crash site and extinguish the fire, but the damage had already been done.
Prior to the crash, the Azerbaijan Airlines flight had declared an emergency. On Flightradar24, a website that tracks and monitors planes worldwide, there were indications of fluctuations in the aircraft's altitude and speed. The cause of the crash is still under investigation, and updates will be provided by The Agency on Twitter and Facebook.
