Taliban officials gave an update on the survivors of a Russian plane crash in northern Afghanistan.

Footage released by the office of Taliban spokesperson Zabihullah Mujahid on January 22 shows four wounded Russian men stepping out of a helicopter while accompanied by Afghan personnel.

An unnamed Taliban official said the men were in good health, but other two passengers were found dead.

The deceased were being transported to Fayzabad province before being taken to the Afghan capital Kabul.

Another clip released on January 23 showed the Russian survivors being checked by doctors at the Sardar Mohammad Daoud Khan Hospital in Kabul.

In a January 22 statement, Zabihullah said: 'Four people from the crashed plane in Badakhshan were transferred to Kabul, the medical and rescue teams of the Ministry of Aviation and the Ministry of Defence have provided them with first aid.'

The plane they were riding, a Dassault Falcon 10 registered RA-09011, was carrying six people on a medical evacuation from Pattaya, Thailand, when it disappeared from radar screens on January 20.

The Taliban-run Ministry of Transport and Aviation said the missing aircraft was found in the mountains of Badakhshan province on January 21.

Russian aviation authority Rosaviatsia said the plane had left the Utapao Airport in eastern Thailand and made stops at India and Uzbekistan.

Russian media reported that the pilot warned he was low on fuel and would try to land at an airport in Tajikistan before the plane disappeared.

Russian media reported that a Russian woman 'in serious condition' was being transported with other Russian nationals on the private flight.

Afghan officials had earlier said a technical team was investigating the crash.
