    An Armenian citizen has died aboard a Moscow-Yerevan passenger flight
    after suffering a bout of a chronic disease, a source at Moscow
    Sheremetyevo airport told Interfax on Monday.

    The incident occurred in the early hours of Monday.

    A Yerevan-bound plane with 52 passengers and a 9-member crew made an
    unscheduled landing in Volgograd after one of the passengers felt sick,
    the source said.

    The passenger died during landing. He had been accompanied by a group
    of relatives.

    Volgograd airport authorities are currently handling the problem of
    transporting the body to Yerevan.

    "According to preliminary estimates, the death was caused by an
    aggravation of a chronic disease," the source said.

    No official information about the incident has been immediately
    available.
