TWO children were among 29 people who miraculously survived a horrific Christmas Day plane crash that killed more than 30 people.
The pilot tried to bring the jet down safely when he reported a bird strike after being diverted from his original destination due to thick fog.
But the plane came down two miles from an airport and burst into flames. Videos were later posted online of dazed and bloodied survivors climbing from the wreckage.
The Azerbaijan Airlines flight was carrying 62 passengers and five crew when it crashed in Kazakhstan.
Last night 29 passengers including two girls aged 11 and 16, were recovering in hospital.
A Ministry of Health spokesman said: "The girls are receiving all the necessary medical care in hospitals in the region. Twenty-three ambulance teams were mobilised to the scene of the incident."
