Local residents were unhappy with the fact that the base employs many illegal immigrants who, in their opinion, were the source of crime in the area. They asked the authorities to remove the vegetable store outside the Moscow Ring Road, but they did not receive a positive response.

Magomed Tolboyev on the catastrophe in Egypt

An experienced ace commented to the National News Service in connection with the tragic accident - the air crash that took place over Egypt on October 31, 2015. According to him, each disaster can have three causes: a crew error, a technical malfunction or external influence. So, in a particular case, the first two reasons can immediately be deleted from this list. As an expert in the field of aviation, Tolboyev asserts that the aircraft was completely serviceable, and the crew could not become a culprit in this situation.

He is inclined to the third factor: that someone interfered with the operation of the aircraft. The board fell sharply, which indicates the emergence of an emergency on the liner. According to Tolboyev, the communication failure occurred as a result of the explosion, at a time when the aircraft was high in the air, and that's why the crew did not manage to report to the ground about the emerged emergency situation.
