The Su-34 bomber plummeted into the city of 90,000 on the Sea of Azov after one of the engines caught fire during takeoff for a training mission, the Russian Defense Ministry said, adding that its two crew members parachuted to safety.
Videos posted on Russian messaging app channels showed a blaze engulfing the building and blasts that might have come from the warplane’s weapons. At least 17 apartments were damaged by the fire, which was contained several hours after the crash, local authorities said.
