Every source is more neutral than Putin TV (RT)
Aircraft was not a TK one, rather a company called My Cargo (9T), Turkish registered aircraft but the company is half Chinese owned. Think it was mis reported that this was a TK aircraft.
Sad loss of life all the same.

My dad flew in a few hours before the crash, and said weather was pretty bad. When I flew in a few weeks ago in similar weather, the runways weren't very well cleared of snow. I can see how a crash could happen.
