'I am Sorry...' Putin Apologizes to Azerbaijan President for Crash: A Mistake by Russian Missiles?

Russian President Vladimir Putin has officially apologized to Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev for the tragic crash of an Azerbaijan Airlines plane, which killed 38 people. The incident, which occurred near the city of Aktau in Kazakhstan on Christmas Day, has raised questions about the potential involvement of Russian air defense systems. Putin suggested that the crash was linked to Ukrainian drone attacks on Grozny airport, but reports indicate the possibility that Russian missiles mistakenly downed the civilian airliner. The investigation is ongoing, and speculation continues about the cause of this tragic incident. #PutinApology #AzerbaijanCrash #RussianMissiles #PlaneCrash #GroznyAirport #RussianDefense #Kremlin #AirlineIncident #Azerbaijan #RussianAirspace #AktauCrash #MilitaryMistake #UkraineConflict Also Read Kazakhstan Plane Crash: Was External Interference The Cause Of The Deadly Crash?
