Two flight attendants were among the 29 survivors of Azerbaijan Airlines flight which crashed in Russia.

Aydan Rahimli is seen in local media receiving visitors at her hospital bedside after she and her fellow cabin crew colleague, Zulfugar Asadov, were among the 29 survivors of flight J2 8243, which was allegedly shot down while attempting to land in Russia.

According to sources from the airline, Zulfugar is also reported to be in stable condition.

Azerbaijan Airlines flight J28243 was en route from Baku to Grozny, the capital of Russia’s Chechnya region, when it crashed a few kilometers short of Aktau Airport in Kazakhstan. The crash occurred after the aircraft sustained damage from a blast.

The three other crew members, who fought heroically to save their passengers until the very end, were among the 38 victims tragically killed in the incident.
