A Russian passenger aircraft heading for Novosibirsk Soci has returned after announcing a pressure loss on Friday, the TASS State News Agency informed by Reuters.
Shot, a Telegram channel with contacts in Russian security services, reported that the plane is a Boeing 737 operated by the Russian S7 airline.
On Thursday, another Russian passenger plane crashed into the Amur region of the Russian Far East, killing all 49 people on board.
The preliminary version in this case of the authorities is that the crew has committed an error, the emergency services for the TASS agency said.
