“She got one hell of a Christmas miracle,” one user said, speaking of the passenger’s wife.

Another commented: “You can hear the panic in her voice so sad. The crew member is asking everyone to sit and put on the seatbelt and that everything will be fine

A third wrote: “This was heartbreaking to watch all those passengers in front I’m surprised how calm everyone seemed.”

While another commented: “I’m so happy with this great news. My condolences to those who lost their lives during this devastating [incident].”

Speaking of the incident, Azerbaijani president Ilham Aliyev warned against speculation at this time as investigations are still in the early stages.
