Ukrainian citizen of the Armenian descent Vahram Simovian is one of the
victims of the Russian plane crash near Russian Petrozavodsk, spokesman
for the Armenian Foreign Ministry Tigran Balayan told Armenpress.
The crash-landing of the Tupolev-134 killed 44 people aboard and
left only eight survivors, seven of them in a very heavy condition,
medical reports said.
The jet took off from Moscow’s Domodedovo airport at 22:30 Monday.
Slightly less than an hour and a half later it hit the surface of
the Petrozavodsk-Suojarvi road, splitting into parts and catching fire.
