Nearly

150 people, including many children, are feared dead after a Russian airliner

crashed in Siberia.

The Sibir Airbus A-310 plane was flying from Moscow when it

crashed on landing at Irkutsk airport.

The plane reportedly slid off the runway and hit a building at

about 0800 on Sunday (2300 GMT Saturday).

About 55 people were injured, Russian officials said. The plane

was carrying 192 passengers and eight crew. All the crew were said to have

died.

Many of the passengers were reported to be children travelling

to the nearby popular holiday destination of Lake Baikal.

The aircraft appeared to veer out of control on landing.

It overshot the runway then crashed through a concrete wall,

before hitting a building close to the airfield. It then broke up and burst into

flames.
