Forty-four people have been killed and eight injured in a plane crash in north-western Russia, officials say.
The aircraft attempted to land on a motorway about 1km (0.6 miles) from Petrozavodsk airport in the republic of Karelia, but crashed and caught fire.
The Tupolev Tu-134 operated by RusAir was carrying 43 passengers and nine crew. Some of the survivors are said to be in critical condition in hospital.
The plane came down while flying from the capital, Moscow, to Petrozavodsk.
It just missed houses built close to the motorway. One source told the Interfax news agency that bodies were strewn over the road.
It also published a full list of the passengers and the names of the survivors, who it said included a 10-year-old boy named Anton. Russian media are meanwhile reporting that one of those killed was a Swedish national.
The emergency situation ministry's office in Karelia said radio contact with the pilot was lost at 2340 local time (1940GMT).
There was no immediate explanation for the crash, but Interfax quoted the airport's director as saying there had been "unfavourable weather conditions". The plane's flight recorders have reportedly been recovered.
Prosecutors say a criminal investigation into the possible neglect of air transport rules is under way.
RusAir is a privately-owned, Moscow-based airline that specialises in charter flights in western Russia and eastern Europe. It has so far not commented.
