Apparently, it was a hospital plane transporting an ill Russian woman and her husband to from Thailand to Moscow.

This would seem to be correct, it was chartered commercially for medivac. The aircraft ran out of fuel whilst trying to reach Tajikistan.

On most things I certainly trust Russian media much more than the true western media who only report facts, like the WMDs in Iraq.....and not this rabid stupidity "from a Russian Propaganda outlet" shyte. Why even print this story, where is the propaganda? I guess you idiots will say Putin poisoned the wife, and then bombed the plane in mid flight. You have lost all touch with reality. 

[ballpoint]

From the Reuters link above:

 

"The Taliban-run Afghan aviation ministry said in a statement on X that the plane’s planned route did not include passing through Afghanistan’s air space and that "probably due to technical issues" the plane had diverted from its planned route."

 

I wonder what "technical" issues would cause a pilot to take a longer route and outfly his fuel range?

So it went splut ... splut ..splut ... zzzz..bang.   The Falcon 10 jet aircraft has a distance range with full tank of 13,000klms

...  seems they didn't do their fuel / distance calculations very good.

Ummm, didn't and couldn't outfly his fuel range, unless you count the final segment to the ground.

The Fake News about the WMD's in Iraq came out of the US Government in Washington; Fake News that was deliberately passed to the Media as well as the British and other Goverments in order to bring 'friends' onside in order that Bush could invade Iraq.   Can't really blame the Media for passing on Government News !

What you HAVE to listen to, are ALL the reports coming out of Russia, from Russian people, who know what it is like to live in Russia, under the rule where EVERYTHING is subject to a term in prison if you happen to disagree  !  !

Especially the Economists, who translate, and evaluate, what Elvira Nabiullina, {Governor of the Central Bank of Russia }, says. 

She served as Assistant to Putin for Economic affairs, before becoming the Head of the Central Bank  !

She is the only one telling the truth, and what she says is truly disturbing  !

Unfortunately All the Russian Media tell lies, and Dis-information, like telling the population, that one of it's factories making ""Powder""  { actually Gun-powder } targetted by Ukraine, caught fire because of a short circuit or other sensless tales.

If you want UNBIASED reporting see Ground News  !
It quotes all news and gives the various news headlines and gives the various biases  !

But don't forget, that Ex KGB man Putin, is a Thug and a Bully, a Cheat and a Liar, and a Thief and a Con-man !

Hardly enough fuel to go from Pattaya to Moscow .... 

 The distance between Moscow and Pattaya is 7163 km.

[sirineou]

 Russian propaganda outlet RIA Novosti and Russian propagandas news agency TAS , But nothing from the Russian propaganda aviation administration the Russian propaganda or the Russian propaganda  aviation industry or the Russian propaganda relatives of the victims. 

Were there any survivors? 

My emojis are not working probably the fault of the Russian propaganda emojis so I copied some no Russian propaganda emojis from the internet. The American internet not the Russia propaganda internet. 

Russian propaganda!

U-Tapao to Tashkent is over the range of the Falcon 10 - no wonder it ran out of fuel.
