At least 40 people were killed when an Aeroflot jet burst into flames during an emergency landing at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo Airport. Two children were among the dead, while dozens more survived but were injured.
Witnesses captured shocking footage of the plane trailing fire and black smoke across the runway. The flight, headed for Murmansk, had turned back due to technical problems before the engines caught fire on landing.
Russia’s government has launched an investigation into the disaster, which has reignited concerns over the safety of the Russian-built Sukhoi Superjet 100.
