Azerbaijan Airlines flight J2-8243, an Embraer 190, crashed near Aktau, Kazakhstan, on December 25, 2024.
The plane, which had been diverted from Grozny due to poor weather conditions and Ukrainian drone attacks, attempted an emergency landing but crashed, killing 38 of the 67 passengers.
Azerbaijan Airlines (AZAL) has cited "technical external interference" as the likely cause of the accident, though initial reports suggest a possible bird strike or an oxygen cylinder explosion.
The incident is under investigation by Azerbaijani and Kazakh authorities.

Ukraine’s intelligence agency has confirmed a major shift in Russian weapon manufacturing: the discovery of an Indian-made component in Iranian-designed Shahed drones used by Moscow. As Western sanctions tighten, Russia is now relying on Chinese, Iranian, and non-Western tech to sustain its military-industrial machine. The majority of electronics found in these drones are no longer American-made. Experts warn that clandestine supply chains — through countries like India, Türkiye, and Kazakhstan — are helping Russia replenish banned components and continue its war efforts with little global accountability.

President Vladimir Putin announced Russia’s recapture of Kursk, the strategic border region Ukraine invaded last year. Praising his military units, Putin declared that all Ukrainian forces have been pushed out completely. This victory, seen as symbolic and military, marks a significant achievement for Russia in its ongoing conflict with Ukraine. As Putin hailed the triumph over "neo-Nazi" forces, the development coincides with Ukrainian President Zelenskyy's attendance at Pope Francis’ funeral. This recapture moves Russia closer to its goal of defeating Ukraine’s forces.
