⚡️Azerbaijan has confirmed that an Azerbaijan Airlines Embraer E190 was hit by a Pantsir-S1 missile fired by Russia while attempting to land in Grozny. In addition to launching the missile at the commercial aircraft, Russia also prohibited its landing at Russian airports, forcing the pilots to fly an additional 440 km—including 300 km over the Caspian Sea—before making an emergency landing in Aktau, Kazakhstan.

Of the 67 occupants, 29 survived, thanks to the crew's expertise and the extreme robustness of the Embraer E190.
