"Yesterday, Deputy Prime Minister Roman Sklyar talked to the Interstate Aviation Committee chairman. This evening, at 18:40 [12:40 GMT] an expert will arrive in Almaty from Moscow. An investigative team is working, the flight recorders have been extracted, and tomorrow we will send the black boxes to the Interstate Aviation Committee in Moscow for decryption," Kamaliev said.
