Russian military plane crashes in Black Sea near Sochi

A Russian military plane with 92 people on board has crashed into the Black Sea, Russia's defence ministry says.

The plane disappeared from radar two minutes after taking off from the resort of Sochi at 05:25 (02:25 GMT). Fuselage fragments have now been found and one body has been retrieved.

The defence ministry said the Tu-154 was carrying soldiers, 64 members of the famed Alexandrov military music ensemble and nine reporters.

It was flying to Latakia in Syria.

The flight originated in Moscow and had landed at Adler airport in Sochi for refuelling.

Just woke up because I forgot to turn my iPhone off. Had this alert. It doesn't look good.

Per the story, a famed singing choir was on the plane, the Alexandrov Ensemble who have the rights to use Red Army Choir.
