An emergency on board forced the Aeroflot flight SU 1492, en route from Moscow to the Russian northern city of Murmansk, turn back to Sheremetyevo.
Leaked CCTV footage of the landing appears to show the Sukhoi Superjet-100 aircraft bouncing off the runway and hitting it with full force, as the engines burst into flames. At least 41 persons on board lost their lives.
