A Russian passenger plane made an emergency landing in a cornfield near Moscow after striking a flock of birds.
Officials say at least 74 people were injured in the incident, which saw the plane land with its engines off and landing gear retracted.
The Ural Airlines Airbus 321 was travelling to Simferopol in Crimea when it hit the flock of gulls shortly after take‑off, disrupting its engines.
