Azerbaijani government sources have exclusively confirmed to Euronews on Thursday that a Russian surface-to-air missile caused the Azerbaijan Airlines plane crash in Aktau on Wednesday.
According to the sources, the missile was fired at Flight 8432 during drone air activity above Grozny, and the shrapnel hit the passengers and cabin crew as it exploded next to the aircraft mid-flight.
Government sources have told Euronews that the damaged aircraft was not allowed to land at any Russian airports despite the pilots’ requests for an emergency landing, and it was ordered to fly across the Caspian Sea towards Aktau in Kazakhstan.
According to data, the plane’s GPS navigation systems were jammed throughout the flight path above the sea. (…)
No accident
They jam gps against drone attacks, it was probably not aimed at the aircraft. If they were jamming gps because of a potential drone attack, they should have told the airliner that the airspace was closed.
Fucking idiot non caring russians.
and this?
Well IMO that just makes it worse, they let the airspace stay open, but refused them to emergey land!
No, that’s not the case here.
They fucked up, realized it and then tried to cover it up.
I’m interested if you have any evidence/information about that.
They fucked up for sure, and tried to cover it up, but they also let the airspace stay open, and potentially jammed gps.
Plus the fact that an official investigation concluded it was shot at by a pantsir (sam?)
But wtf, russians are so incompetent they shoot at an airliner instead of a drone
yet they’re even too incompetent to shoot it down fully
