The usual playbook begins..
1. Not us
2. Sorry
3. Sorry, yes it was us
4. Yes it was us, but it's your fault
5. Yes it was us, it was your fault and the issue is closed.

Remark concerning #Azerbaijan #Airlines #Flight #8243:
We would do well to remember the names of the pilots who died.
They fought for over an hour with a mortally wounded plane to get it as good as possible to the ground.
They had now yaw, no rudder, no ailerons, no flaps, only the power level of the engine as means of control.
Air Traffic Control denied them the use of the closest airports and sent them to cross a sea.
What they have shown is courage in the face of insurmountable odds. They knew exactly what their chances were. Their airmanship was on the highest possible level.
Their names are Igor Kshnyakin and Aleksandr Kalyaninov.
To the media: please don’t give any airtime to the obviously disinformation spreading speaker of the Kremlin and report about those who saved 29 lives.
A Russian anti-aircraft system may have shot down an Azerbaijan Airlines jet over Kazakhstan, U.S. official says.

ACAB @mynameistillian@plush.cityaktau airplane crash, HOLY SHIT
Azerbaijani government sources have exclusively confirmed to Euronews on Thursday that a Russian surface-to-air missile caused the Azerbaijan Airlines plane crash in Aktau on Wednesday.
If this preliminary data is confirmed, this would be the second time in a decade that Russian forces have destroyed a commercial aircraft after the MH17 crash in Ukraine.

Speculation mounts over cause of Azerbaijan Airlines plane crash that left at least 38 dead.
@CNN reports: "The crash came shortly after Ukrainian drone strikes hit southern Russia. Drone activity has shut airports in the area in the past and the nearest Russian airport on the plane’s flight path was closed on Wednesday morning."

Bathing in Oil at a Climate Summit? It Leaves a Stain
In Azerbaijan, site of the COP29 climate talks and a petrostate, people aren’t only proud of their oil. They swear by its health benefits and visit resorts to soak in it

"Paris agreement is working, Australian minister tells Cop29, but much deeper cuts needed by 2035"

At #COP29, Azerbaijan had also been expected to announce a new national climate plan – known as a nationally determined contribution (#NDC) – but it has yet to do so.
#Azerbaijan started a diplomatic spat with the EU
Meanwhile, Progress on COP29’s headline outcome – the new post-2025 climate finance goal (the NCQG) – continues to be incredibly slow."
This #COP29 is not looking great.
"#Azerbaijan was expected to unveil its flagship – and most controversial – initiative: a #climate fund designed “primarily” for developing countries with money voluntarily put in by #FossilFuel-producing countries and companies.
The fund would mainly give out money at commercial lending rates with only a fifth of its revenues providing “highly concessional and grant-based support” to vulnerable countries."
The launch of this fund has been scrapped.
