Russia Passenger Angara Missing Plane Crash Death Toll Latest news today: A passenger aircraft, carrying arounf 50 people, which went missing in Russia's far eastern Amur region, prompting a large-scale search operation, has crashed in Amur region on Thursday. In the meantime, all the on-board passengers are feared to have been dead in the tragic incident.
Earlier, the aircraft, an Antonov An-24, operated by the Siberia-based airline Angara, vanished from radar while on approach to Tynda, a remote town near the Russian-Chinese border. After a few hours, the plane's debris was found in the Amur region.
All people on board are feared dead, Russian news agency TASS said, citing preliminary data.
The plane reportedly lost radio contact with air traffic controllers just before it was scheduled to land.
The An-24 is a twin turboprop Soviet-era aircraft, once widely used across Russia’s regional airlines, but has seen declining service due to aging fleets and mechanical concerns.
This incident adds to a growing list of aviation concerns in Russia’s remote regions, where harsh weather, difficult geography, and older aircraft often complicate air travel and rescue operations.
