BAKU: Deciphering the information extracted from the Black Box, officials here on Thursday (26th Dec, 2024) have proclaimed that the Russian Pantsir Missile System had caused the Azerbaijan Airlines Embraer-190 (harbouring 62 voyagers and five crew) crash a day earlier, killing 38 people.
It transpired from the investigation that as soon as the aircraft approached Grozny the (Electronic Warfare) Pantsir Missile System jammed its communication due to which it disappeared from the radars.

Earlier, it was insinuated that the aircraft crashed due to bird strike. According to details, the plane was travelling from the Azerbaijani capital Baku to Grozny (in the Russian region of Chechnya). Following bird or Electronic Warfare strike, flight J2-8243 flew hundreds of miles off its route, 3 km from Aktau, and hit the ground before bursting into flames.
Since a portion of the Embraer-190 fuselage remained intact, those travelling in that part of plane, including two children, survived and presently are being provided medical aid. Sources informed that 11 rescued voyagers are in critical condition.
