ANKARA (AA) - A Russian warplane crashed in a southern Siberia province, killing two pilots, local media reported on Sunday.
The SU-30 warplane crashed into a two-story building in the Irkutsk city's Leninsky district, said Igor Kobzev, mayor of Irkutsk region, state-run news agency TASS reported.
No one was hurt in the building where the plane crashed as the five people who lived there were not at home.
Russia's Investigative Committee qualified the crash as a violation of traffic safety rules and the operation of air transport. A criminal case launched under penal code, it said.
On Oct.17, the Russian Defense Ministry said a fighter SU-34 military plane crashed in the southern city of Yeysk while on a training flight, killing 13 people, including three children.
