i not understand why these airplane manufacturing companies not use this russian concept to reduce casualties when something go wrong

Doesn’t matter,
Pilot seems to be the culprit after thorough thinking

It could have been a maintenance issue that limited the pilots ability to control the plane, as in the Heathrow crash video above. The pilot may not have been adequately trained to deal with the possibility of a disable aircraft that close to the ground. We need to wait for the investigation to find out what happened. For now we should look into the training records of pilot training as well as the maintenance record of the plane.

The hydraulic failure and how it was repaired maybe at fault. Perhaps the repair was not done to standards. Eventually, after a number of years, some part failed, leading the engine failure at low altitude today.

Rip.

Airports shud be outside city.

Or at least 1000 meters should be clear on the approaches to the runways.

Very tragic news, best to pray.

There seem to be conflicting reports between a hydraulic failure of the landing gear VS. an engine failure.

may low altitude it may not have helped anyway.
