Forty-one people, including at least two children, are believed to have died when a Russian passenger plane made an emergency landing and was engulfed in flames at Moscow’s busiest airport on Sunday, investigators said.
Dramatic footage shared on social media showed Aeroflot’s Sukhoi Superjet 100 aircraft, land at Sheremetyevo international airport, flames and black smoke pouring from its fuselage.
Passengers could be seen leaping onto an inflatable slide at the front and running from the blazing plane as huge black columns of smoke billowed into the sky.
