The airliner said the flight from New Delhi to San Francisco safely landed Tuesday at a remote airport in Siberia.
Air India officials say a flight from New Delhi to San Francisco had to make an emergency landing Tuesday in Russia's far east after experiencing a technical issue with the jet's engine.
"Given the infrastructural limitations around the remote airport, we can confirm that all passengers were eventually moved to a makeshift accommodation, after making sincere attempts to accommodate passengers in hotels locally with the help of local government authorities," the statement read. While numerous Western countries have been banned from entering Russian airspace following the country's invasion of Ukraine, some carriers like Air India continue to fly over the country. The United States said it is monitoring the situation.
Patel added that American citizens were"likely" on board the stranded flight but could not confirm how many.

Air India plane flying from New Delhi to San Francisco lands in Russia after engine problemOfficials say an Air India flight from New Delhi to San Francisco has landed in Russia after it developed an engine problem. The airline said in a statement on Wednesday that the plane, a Boeing 777 carrying 216 passengers and 16 crew members, landed safely on Tuesday at Russia’s Magadan airport in the country’s far east. Vedant Patel, a U.S. State Department spokesman, said American citizens were likely on board the flight but could not immediately confirm how many. One passenger said he and his family are barred from leaving the hostel where they are staying in Magadan and can’t use their credit cards to buy items from the vending machine because of sanctions over Russia’s war on Ukraine.
