A plane and helicopter are looking for the missing aircraft but Russia's emergency situations ministry said that the search was being 'complicated by poor visibility' caused by fog and low clouds.
A plane carrying three people and cargo has gone missing in Russia's far east, the country's authorities have said.
On board the aircraft, which news agency Tass reported belonged to a private organization, were two crew members, one passenger and one tonne of cargo, authorities said. The regional branch of Russia's investigative committee has said that a criminal probe had been launched"due to the lack of information" about the aircraft's location.
