snoop1130 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Two killed, seven injured as Russian plane makes emergency landing in Siberia MOSCOW (Reuters) - Two people were killed and seven injured when an Antonov An-24 passenger plane made an emergency landing on Thursday at an airport in Russia’s Buryatia region in Siberia, the area’s emergency situations ministry said. The plane carrying 48 people, including 5 crew members, overshot the runway after landing, hit a small building and caught fire, regional authorities said. The aircraft took off from the regional capital of Ulan-Ude and flew to Nizhneangarsk, where it was forced to make an emergency landing when one of its engines failed, they said. Video shot by a passenger from a plane window showed the aircraft coming into land on the runway before rolling into a field and then suddenly violently halting with passengers screaming onboard. Regional authorities said a pilot and technician had been killed in the accident, but all the passengers had been safely evacuated before a fire destroyed the plane. The flight was operated by Russian regional airline Angara, media reported. -- © Copyright Reuters 2019-06-27 Follow Thaivisa on LINE for breaking Thailand news and visa info Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
