Descriptions:
On a foggy Christmas morning, Azerbaijan Airlines Flight J2-8243 departed Baku, Azerbaijan, bound for Grozny, Russia—a short 1.5-hour journey.
Mid-flight, somewhere over the Caspian Sea, the aircraft reportedly sent an SOS signal and was redirected to Aktau, Kazakhstan, for an emergency landing.
Tragically, the plane crashed just 3 km from Aktau Airport.
Reports indicate an estimated 60 to 110 people were onboard, with some survivors supposedly confirmed, though details on casualties remain unclear.
Authorities are investigating the cause, with preliminary reports pointing to a possible bird strike.
Rescue teams are actively working at the crash site.
