At least 60 injured people, including children, were taken to hospitals. Flight Z92100 was en route from Almaty, Kazakhstan's largest city, to the capital Nur-Sultan. The cause of the crash is not known. A Reuters reporter close to the scene said there was heavy fog at the time. What's known about the crash? Almaty's airport said there were 93 passengers and five crew on board the Fokker 100 aircraft. A full list of the passengers published by Kazakhstan's interior ministry said there were 85 adults, five children and three infants on board, not counting the crew. The airport said the plane lost height at 07:22 local time (01:22 GMT), before striking a concrete barrier and crashing into a two-storey building. There was no fire upon impact. The airport later published the list of 60 survivors who were being treated at hospitals. Maral Erman, one of the survivors, said the plane was shaking during take-off, Tengri News website reports. She said it first felt as if the plane had landed, but in fact "we hit something". "There wasn't much chaos on board," she said. "There were no screaming."
