The Russian An-148 passenger jet, which is believed to be carrying 44 people, landed after circling to use up fuel.

None of the 37 passengers and 7 crew members were hurt during the landing, Rossiya’s press office told Interfax.
A Russian investigation into the incident is now under way.
Manufactured jointly by Ukraine and Russia, the An-148 is one of the former USSR’s newer jets, and only entered service with Rossiya in 2009.
