Taliban Transfers Survivors Of Plane Crash In Badakhshan To Kabul

Jan 22, 2024, 13:28 GMT+0

On Monday, Zabihullah Mujahid, the spokesperson for the Taliban, announced that four survivors from the plane crash in Badakhshan were transferred to Kabul.

Mujahid, in a social media post on the X network, noted that medical teams had provided the necessary first aid to these individuals.

Mujahid had earlier confirmed finding a downed Russian airplane in the Kuf Ab district of Badakhshan province, affirming that the pilot and three passengers survived the crash.

Furthermore, the Russian news agency RIA Novosti, quoting a source within the Russian aviation authority, suggested that strong winds or a fuel shortage could have been factors leading to the crash. The source highlighted the presence of strong headwinds on Saturday, which might have played a role in the incident.

Russia Today (RT) shared details about the passengers on the missing aircraft in Badakhshan. The plane was reportedly carrying a Russian couple returning from a vacation in Thailand. The illness of one of the passengers necessitated their early return to Russia.
