Chilling video of seconds before passenger plane going to Russia crashes in Kazakhstan
There is a chilling video showing an Embraer passenger plane flying from Azerbaijan to Russia crashing near the city of Aktau in Kazakhstan on Wednesday.
It had 67 passengers, including the crew.
Kazakh authorities said more than 30 people were killed and 28 survived.
The video shows that the fire services had put out the blaze and that survivors were being treated at a nearby hospital.
Azerbaijan Airlines said the Embraer 190 aircraft, with flight number J2-8243, had been flying from Baku to Grozny, the capital of Russia's Chechnya, but had been forced to make an emergency landing approximately 3 km from the Kazakh city of Aktau.
Russian news agencies said the plane had been rerouted due to fog in Grozny.
Authorities in Kazakhstan said they had begun looking into different possible versions of what had happened, including a technical problem, Russia's Interfax news agency reported.
