Baku, December 23 /Xinhua/ — The preliminary investigation into the crash of an Azerbaijan Airlines (AZAL) flight from Baku to Grozny has documented illegal external physical interference, the airline's vice president, Ilham Amirov, announced on Tuesday.

According to local media, he made the announcement at a ceremony to present a postage stamp issued in memory of the AZAL plane that crashed near the city of Aktau in Kazakhstan.

According to I. Amirov, the investigation is being conducted in accordance with the requirements of the Chicago Convention. Authorities in Kazakhstan, where the crash occurred, have formed a special state commission with the participation of aviation experts.

"According to international regulations, a preliminary report must be prepared within a month of the incident. Such a document was published at the end of January of this year by the Kazakh state commission. However, it is interim in nature and not final," Amirov emphasized.

As AZAL's vice president stated, a preliminary investigation has established that "while the aircraft was in the air, as it approached Grozny Airport, illegal physical interference took place."

I. Amirov added that air accident investigations can take a long time, sometimes years, if a detailed analysis of the equipment is required.

On December 25, 2024, an AZAL Embraer 190 passenger jet was operating a scheduled flight from Baku to Grozny with 67 people on board. After several unsuccessful landing attempts at the destination airport, the aircraft crashed near the city of Aktau in western Kazakhstan. Thirty-eight people died in the accident, and 29 survived.
