"I was saddened to learn of the plane crash in Russia's Far East. My thoughts are with the families who have lost their loved ones.
"In times like this, we are reminded of how fragile life is, and how connected we all are, across distance and borders. It also reminds us that our shared humanity matters more than geopolitics," he said in a Facebook post, Thursday.
Anwar added that Malaysia conveys its condolences to the Russian people and stands in quiet solidarity with all who mourn.
Earlier reports stated that the AN-24 aircraft, which went down in Russia's Amur Region, caught fire during its descent. No survivors were observed during an aerial survey of the crash site.
The aircraft was carrying 46 passengers including two children and six crew members. - July 25, 2025
