A light aircraft has crashed in Tatarstan, landing on the territory of a private residential home. According to preliminary information, the aircraft was a Cessna 337 Skymaster training plane. The incident occurred in the Kazan area, where the aircraft had been flying over the city for about an hour.
Eyewitnesses report that the plane was circling at low altitude, performing maneuvers within the urban area. During descent, it apparently struck power lines, lost control, and crashed into a property with a residential building.
A fire broke out at the crash site. Fire crews, emergency services, police, and medics arrived promptly. The fire was contained, and crews are clearing debris and dousing the affected structures.
The plane crashed on a plot adjacent to a private house. An outbuilding was damaged, along with the roof and facade of the main house. According to reports, people were inside the house at the time. Information on casualties is being clarified.
The aircraft reportedly belonged to a private flight school. On board were possibly an instructor and a trainee. Their identities and conditions have not yet been disclosed.
Experts have begun inspecting the crash site and documenting all circumstances. Primary versions being considered include technical failure, pilot error, and possible external factors such as contact with power lines.
Aviation authorities, investigative teams, and flight safety experts are working at the scene. The area has been cordoned off, and a temporary safety zone has been established.
Tatarstan authorities have announced the launch of an official investigation. Regional emergency services have been placed on high alert. The public has been promised reliable information following preliminary checks.
