A plane that crashed Monday into a snowy field in Siberia, killing 31 people, appears to have been improperly de iced. That according to Alexander Neradko, the head of Russia's civil aviation department, Rosaviatsiya. But he added there was no indication that negligence caused the crash. Investigators said evidence so far suggests a technical failure as the cause. The twin-engine turboprop belonging to UTair crashed shortly after takeoff from the snowy western Siberian city of Tyumen with 43 people aboard. Twelve people have been hospitalized in serious condition. (Foto: Russian Emergency Ministry)

23 жаштагы бул жигит соңку күндөрү дүйнөдөгү номур биринчи террористке айланды. Палестинада өлгөн жаш балдар үчүн өчүмдү алам деген теги алжирлик Мухаммад Мера Франциянын Тулуз шаарында жөөттөрдүн мектебинде окуучуларды, мугалимин, дагы бир нече аскерди, иши кылып туш келди эле адамдарды ата баштаган. Психологдор, догдурлар, социологдор, саясатчылар, журналисттер муну эми ар кандайча түшүндүрүп, аныктама бергенге ашыгышат. А бирок видеодон алынган дал ушул сүрөт күлүңдөгөн жигиттин жүрөгүндө ушунчалык "жек көрүү аралаш таарыныч" күчтүү болгондугун көрсөтө албады. Башка сүрөттөрүн биз көрө алган жокпуз.
