Dozens feared killed after plane crashes in Russia’s Far East

Nearly 50 people, including children, are feared dead after an Antonov An-24 passenger plane crashed near Tynda in Russia’s Amur region. The Soviet-era aircraft, operated by Angara Airlines, vanished from radar during a regional flight and was later found wrecked and on fire on a remote mountainside. No survivors were seen, and preliminary reports indicate all 49 people on board perished. The plane crashed during a second landing attempt, CNN has reported. Investigations are underway, and Russia has declared three days of mourning.
