Azerbaijan plane crash: In the year 2024, a passenger plane crashed in Azerbaijan, killing 38 people. When the plane crashed, speculation arose as to whether it was an accident or an attack. But on Thursday, Russian President Vladimir Putin exposed this mystery. He has admitted that our country had a hand in this plane crash. He has called this incident a tragedy.
Meeting with Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, Putin said Russia had deployed missiles to destroy the Ukrainian drone on the morning of the incident, which exploded just meters from the plane. “Russia will make every effort to provide compensation in such a tragic case, and the actions of all officials will be assessed legally,” he said.
38 people died
On 25 December, an Azerbaijan Airlines plane crashed in Kazakhstan. It was to land in the southern Russian city of Grozny. 38 out of 67 people on board the plane died in this accident.
Speaking to the President of Azerbaijan, Putin said, “The two missiles that were fired did not hit the plane directly. If that had happened, the plane would have crashed right there.”
Putin said Russian air traffic controllers advised the pilot to land in the Russian city of Makhachkala, but he tried to land at his home airport and then in Kazakhstan, where the plane crashed.

Accusations have been made of hiding the causes of the accident.
Aliyev has previously accused Russia of concealing the causes of the accident. The Kremlin said in a statement Thursday that it thanked Putin for providing accurate information about the crash. Initial statements from the Russian air traffic agency showed that the plane, an Embraer 190, was changing course after hitting a bird.
The incident caused considerable tension in Azerbaijan’s relations with Russia, which is an oil-rich state and has historically had close relations with Russia.
