A Boeing 738 passenger jet crashed as it was landing at the Rostov-On-Don airport in southern Russia early Saturday, killing all 61 people reported onboard, according to the country's emergency services.
Video posted online appeared to show the crash and explosion.
FlyDubai Flight 981 originated in Dubai, Russia's Southern Regional Emergency Center said. There were no survivors among the 55 passengers and six crew members, an official said.
Most of the passengers on board were Russian, Reuters reported, citing a regional governor appearing on television.
Boeing was investigating, as was FlyDubai.
