Today, many hearts were touched by alarming footage from within a passenger plane that tragically crashed in Kazakhstan. This footage, taken by a passenger, captures a fearful moment where individuals are seen praying as oxygen masks descend amidst visible cabin damage.

These haunting images were captured just minutes before the airplane crash-landed and split in two upon impact.

Despite the chaos, over 30 passengers astonishingly survived, yet heartbreakingly, the tragedy has claimed 42 lives.

Additional footage showed the relentless efforts of rescuers combing through the wreckage of the ill-fated Azerbaijan Airlines flight. This flight had departed from Baku heading to Grozny, but disaster struck near Kazakhstan’s Aktau border after the plane circled the airfield several times.

Amidst the distress, a trapped female passenger cried out for help. Her desperate plea did not go unheard, as a firefighter swiftly arrived to assist and extract her from the entangled debris.

Survivors mostly hailed from the plane’s rear section, which remained intact compared to the severely damaged front section engulfed in flames.

All survivors bore significant injuries, with many severely burned or bruised, seven of which were critically injured and received immediate medical care. Tragically, approximately ten passengers perished after being violently ejected from the aircraft cabin.
