Investigation
The Interstate Aviation Committee (Russian: Межгосударственный авиационный комитет) investigated the accident with assistance from the Czech Air Accidents Investigation Institute (Czech: Ústav pro odborné zjišťování příčin leteckých nehod), representing the state of manufacture of the aircraft.[3] A preliminary report was released on 22 December 2017.[2] The final report was released in August 2019.
