Due to Western sanctions over Moscow’s offensive in Ukraine, Russia’s aviation has been severely restricted. No casualties were reported, according to the authorities, who released a footage showing the Ural Airlines plane on a field near a forest in the Novosibirsk area. People gathered outside the plane, which had its slides extended.

A hydraulic system malfunction caused the aircraft to emit an alarm. Despite having a planned landing at Novosibirsk Airport, the plane quickly vanished from radar.

According to the company, “all passengers are housed in the nearest village,” and none of them sought medical care. The Russian Investigative Committee has begun a criminal investigation into the alleged breach of aviation safety regulations. The emergency landing was carried out, it was stated, “for a technical reason.”
