The supersonic bomber broke in two and exploded into a fireball in
what appears to be very hard landing in bad visibility conditions.

Three crewmembers died and a fourth is hospitalized with serious
injuries after the crash mid-day on Tuesday January 22nd.

Now, a video recorded alongside the runway at the air base has leaked
out and published on and Twitter and YouTube. Numerous Russian media
republish the video over the weekend.
