A passenger on board an Air Koryo flight which on Friday conducted an emergency landing in Shenyang, China, told NK News he thought he "was going to die" as a result of a fire which caused its diversion from Beijing.
"I thought I was going to die as the flight was dropping," said the source, referring to a rapid descent which flight tracking data shows saw the Russian-manufactured plane to lowering 9,000 feet in just five minutes.
