A airplane crash in Russia killed all 55 people aboard after a plane missed its runway.
The FlyDubai Boeing 737 from Dubai crashed while landing in the southwestern city of Rostov-on-Don, the country’s Emergency Situations Ministry confirmed to TASS.
A source told RIA Novosti that the plane missed its runway by up to 100 meters (328 feet).
The Boeing 737 is said to have crashed on its second attempt to land, amid poor visibility.
Reports suggest that at least 55 passengers and four crew may have been on the aircraft and that it was Flight FZ981 operated by the FlyDubai airline.
Footage from FlightRadar 24 shows the aircraft made one attempt to land before it declared a missed approach and circled the airport for a second attempt.
