Summary
An Azerbaijan Airlines plane crashed in Kazakhstan, killing 38 and injuring 29, with speculation mounting that Russia’s military may have been involved.
Experts doubt Russia’s suggestion of a bird strike, citing damage to the plane’s fuselage consistent with shrapnel from an airborne weapon.
The plane’s GPS system was reportedly malfunctioning, and survivors reported hearing an explosion before the crash.
Investigations by Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, and Russia are ongoing, with black boxes recovered.
The incident evokes comparisons to the 2014 downing of Malaysia Airlines Flight 17.

How shady of a country are you where you would not just take responsibility and excuse yourself.
People would be far more understanding if they would have taken responsibility, because after all, the plane was flying a weird path where a country is at war. So accidents are bound to happen.
“idk bro maybe it’s a bird” is what we get instead.
The lie isn’t for us, it’s for the Russians under control of their propaganda. They might never see the pictures we’ve seen or the final report.
Lying is tradition in Russia and politics
It’s just a rocket powered bird capable of mach 3 and filled with 10,000 tungsten fragments
Don’t forget signal jamming songs. Tweet tweet mother fucker.
Nah, it was definitely a coordinated effort by a squadron of supersonic birds with steel beaks. Couldn’t be glorious oligarcho-fascist shithole.
Bird strike! roflmao
fucking russians man
christ.
If you do not agree bird strike we do nuclear attack on world.
I would rather believe if Russia blamed “other” Barry for this.
Bird in question
Any Birders who can identify this one?
Looks like a rare blue beak red tail Jay.
Russian accent “birds took off from perch on Buk TEL missile defence system having recently feasted on discarded missile fragments. Is great tragedy…”
Yeah probably because there’s pretty fucking obvious evidence of damage from a proximity-fused frag warhead (used in SHORAD systems like the one that likely shot the plane down). I’m honestly just amused that the Russians are continuing to stick to their lines on this one. But they’ve done that with much bigger things (MH17; Moskva), so it checks out.
Ridiculous let’s make it clear what is fuckening here:
News: Kennedy has been in some sort of car accident at the parade… Video shown, clearly showing everything, then camera turns and zooms into window where the sniper was.
Rando: my conspiracy theory is aliens.
Rando2: there were two bullets made of untraceable ice.
News, guy is arrested with gun and bullets matching the scene, guy pleads guilty, 23 old women saw him do it. He also took a selfie and wrote it all down.
Rando 40 years later… Definitely aliens.
I thought they would say it fell out of a window
