All 18 on missing Russian plane found alive in ‘miracle’ Published on Share
Russian officials hailed a “miracle” on Friday after a passenger plane made an emergency landing in a Siberian field and all 18 people on board emerged with only cuts and bruises.
The An-28 plane, operated by Siberian Light Aviation (SiLA), was flying from the town of Kedrovy to Tomsk when communication was lost, Governor Sergei Zhvachkin’s office said.
The emergencies ministry announced later that the plane had been found, apparently after making a “hard landing”, and that survivors had been spotted.
The aviation agency said the plane had been found 155 kilometres (96 miles) from the airstrip in Tomsk.
