Narrative A

While preliminary information suggests that the plane was re-routed due to fog and that a bird strike may have caused the emergency landing, official investigations have been launched to fully determine what happened in this tragic incident.

Anti-Russia narrative

While it's unclear what caused this crash, a flight-tracking service said that the plane experienced strong GPS jamming before going down, which could have been a factor in the incident. Russia has been criticized in the past for jamming planes' signals in the region.
