All presumed dead after debris of An-24 aircraft found near the Russian-Chinese border
An Antonov An-24 passenger plane carrying about 50 people crashed in Russia’s far east on Thursday and initial information suggested that everyone on board was killed, Russian emergency services officials said.
The burning fuselage of the plane, which was from the Soviet era and was nearly 50 years old, was spotted on the ground by a helicopter and rescue crews were rushing to the scene.
Unverified video, shot from a helicopter and posted on social media, appeared to show that the plane had come down in a densely forested area.
