Hospitalization of two pensioners from the Bangkok flight — Yekaterinburg has been associated with alcohol. The plane made an emergency landing in Tashkent today.

A video from the cabin of the airliner, filmed by one of the passengers, appeared on telegram channels.

According to an eyewitness to the incident, the cause of the sharp deterioration in the man’s health and women could become alcoholic. An elderly couple allegedly got drunk before the trip.

Doctors hospitalized the man with a suspected heart attack. His wife decided to fly further.

However, when the plane began to taxi to the runway, they reported that the second passenger had become ill. It turned out to be a woman about 65 years old. She was given an injection and left on the plane.

As a result, the flight arrived in Yekaterinburg 4.5 hours late.
