    President Serzh Sargsyan sent a letter of condolences to the President
    of the Russian Federation, Dmitry Medvedev, connected with the air
    crash near the airport of Petrozavodsk that claimed the lives of
    44 people.

    The President asked to extend condolences to the relatives of the
    victims and wished soon recovery to the injured.

    The RusAir Tu-134 jet took off from Moscow and was due to arrive
    in Petrozavodsk, the capital of Karelia, at 12:04 a.m. on Tuesday
    (20:04 GMT Monday), but crash landed on a nearby highway, which was
    shrouded in fog.

    The aircraft broke up and burst into flames on impact. Initially eight
    of the 52 people on board survived and were taken to local hospitals.
