Plane made emergency landing in Russia due to fuel shortage. It flew via Kazakhstan because of drones
A "Pobeda" airline plane made an emergency landing in Samara due to fuel shortage. The flight from Vladikavkaz to Moscow has already been delayed for more than 14 hours.
The aircraft departed at 23:35 with a delay, and three hours later was forced to land at Kurumoch airport — all due to critically low fuel levels after the pilots had to fly via Kazakhstan due to a drone threat declared in the regions, writes Mash.
In Samara, passengers sat in the airliner for almost three hours before they were allowed to exit into the airport. The departure to Moscow was initially scheduled for 07:50, later postponed to 15:00.
Food — water and a sausage with pasta — was provided to people only after 13 hours of waiting. The airline did not provide accommodation for the night.
