Russian media outlet NTV has published a new video of the deadly Sukhoi Superjet-100 (SSJ100) fire at Moscow's Sheremetyevo Airport on its Twitter account.
The footage shows the burning SSJ100, with passengers going down the aircaft's steps, while the emergency services take them away from the burning plane. Then the camera shows a woman, who seemingly feels unwell and nearly collapses on the grass when two flight attendants approach her.
