A RUSSIAN military plane has crashed in the country's far east, killing all nine people on board.
An emergency ministry official said the Tu-142-M3 anti-submarine turboprop crashed in the Tatarsky Strait about 12 miles off the Pacific coast.
The plane disappeared off radar screens when it was finishing a training flight, a Defence Ministry official said. The bodies of the crew were removed from the water by boats.
