At least 12 people are dead, 49 others have been hospitalized in Kazakhstan after a plane carrying 98 people crashed into a two-story building shortly after takeoff at an Almaty airport. The Bek Air-operated aircraft was a Fokker-100 model—a midsize, twin-turbofan jet airliner. It was 23 years old and had been most recently certified to operate in May. All Bek Air and Fokker-100 flights in Kazakhstan have been suspended pending an investigation into the crash, local authorities said. In a statement on its Facebook page, the airport said a fire and a rescue operation got underway immediately following the crash. Around 1,000 people were working at the snow-covered site of the crash Friday morning.
