Aliyev announced new details of the plane crash in KazakhstaAs stated by Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, the Embraer 190 aircraft that crashed near the city of Aktau in Kazakhstan suffered external damage while still in Russia, near the city of Grozny.He also noted that the damage affected the aircrafts handling.
It is known that the Azerbaijani civilian aircraft was knocked out of control using electronic warfare equipment.
This was the first stage of damage to the aircraft, the president emphasized.
Aliyev also added that the tail section of the plane was severely damaged by shelling from the ground.The President of Azerbaijan called on Russia to take responsibility, punish the perpetrators, and pay compensation.
It is surprising and saddening that Russian officials are trying to cover up the situation by putting forward versions of a gas cylinder explosion.
Such behavior only complicates the situation and does not contribute to establishing the truth, Aliyev noted.
The final causes of the disaster will become known after the black boxes are deciphered.Azerbaijani authorities have named the preliminary cause of the plane crashOn December 27, Azerbaijan Airlines and Azerbaijans Minister of Digital Development and Transport Rashad Nabiyev named external influence as the preliminary cause of the plane crash in Kazakhstan.According to their data, it was he who caused the damage to the aircraft.The accident killed 38 people.Passengers and flight attendants said they heard the sounds of explosions during the flight over Grozny, which may indicate an armed attack on the plane.It is worth noting that the planes crew did everything possible to make an optimal landing and save the lives of most of the people on board.The day before, dictator Vladimir Putin apologized during a telephone conversation with Aliyev for the tragic incident with the Azerbaijan Airlines plane that occurred in Russian airspace, but did not admit the Russians guilt.
