Rescue workers working at the site of a passenger plane crash outside Almaty. The Fokker 100 aircraft, operated by Bek Air, got into trouble shortly after departing from Almaty, the Central Asian country's commercial centre, on a pre-dawn flight en route to the capital Nur-Sultan. It lost altitude during takeoff and broke through a concrete fence before hitting the two-storey building, Kazakhstan's Civil Aviation Committee said. It was not immediately clear what caused the crash.
