    PICTURE: Belavia Bombardier CRJ crashes at Yerevan
    By David Kaminski-Morrow


    Twenty-one occupants of a Belavia Bombardier CRJ100 have survived
    after the aircraft was destroyed in an accident at the Armenian
    capital Yerevan.

    Belavia, the flag-carrier of Belarus, has confirmed the accident
    which occurred as the aircraft was operating as flight B21834 to
    Minsk early today.

    Circumstances of the accident are unclear but images from the scene
    show the aircraft inverted and badly damaged by fire, with its
    undercarriage deployed.

    The CRJ100 was transporting 18 passengers and three crew members but
    Belavia says there were `no victims'. It lists, however, seven
    occupants as being hospitalised.

    Belavia says the Belarussian Government is to assist Armenian
    authorities with their inquiry into the accident.
