Pilots were forced to make an immediate emergency landing.

Judging by the video, which was filmed by one of the passengers, all the luggages have been sucked out of the plane.

Sources say a broken luggage compartment lock has not been replaced from the official supplier.

The Antonov An-26 is a twin-engined turboprop civilian and military transport aircraft, designed and produced in the Soviet Union from 1969 to 1986.
