Russian Falcon plane crashes in Afghanistan

It became known that a passenger plane of a Russian company crashed in the mountains of Afghanistan.

The plane disappeared from radar over the Afghan province of Badakhshan. The Pajvak agency reports this.

At first, it was reported that this was an Indian ship en route to Moscow.

However, later, the Russian Federation admitted that the Falcon aircraft was registered in the state register of civil aircraft of the Russian Federation.
