The man felt unwell during the flight: he went to the toilet, where he hit his head on the sink, and upon leaving the cabin, he lost consciousness. Flight attendants tried to provide first aid to the victim.
“The nurse on board stated that there were external signs that the passenger was having a heart attack, was in critical condition and needed emergency assistance,” the report said.
The crew members did not allow her to intervene and decided to make an emergency landing at an unscheduled airfield. As a result, the plane landed at Vilnius airport.
There the patient was met by doctors. The passenger was hospitalized, and the plane, after a 1.5-hour delay, took off for the Russian capital. Carrier representatives have not yet reported the incident.
Earlier, pilots of a Russian plane flying from Nizhnekamsk to Moscow noticed several unidentified objects in the sky. The crew reported seeing at least four small gray-pink balls near the aircraft.
