a plane carrying polish president lech kaczynski has crashed near a russian airport, officials say.
Russian media reported that 87 people were killed in the crash near smolensk, and a regional governor was quoted as saying there were no survivors.
Polish officials said mr kaczynski was on board along with his wife maria and several senior government figures.
They were in russia to mark the 70th anniversary of the katyn massacre, when soviets killed thousands of poles.
The russian emergencies ministry told itar-tass news agency the plane crashed at 1056 moscow time (0656 gmt).
Ministry spokeswoman irina andrianova said it had been flying from moscow to smolensk, but had no details on the identities of those killed.
Smolensk regional governor sergei antufiev told russian tv that no-one had survived.
"it clipped the tops of the trees, crashed down and broke into pieces. There were no survivors," he was quoted as saying.
The polish foreign ministry said the president and his wife were aboard the plane.
Central bank governor slawomir skrzypek was also said to have been on board.
Basically! Some of the most and the most important people from polish government died!

Now polish doesn't have any president, or even vice president..
 
I guess they will have to vote for a new president. (I know it's not that simple)...'


Edit: What's the [*]? xD
 
I saw that on television yesterday. Well, pilots are guilty, they knew it was no visibilty but they continued. Besides, the Air Control proposed them to land on a diffrent airport, in Moscow. But the Pilots refused and just attempted to land. Realy sad :(

There were few attempts- some sources say about four, but Russians confirm only two. It won't be sure unless they open black boxes.
