Aeroflot forced landing of 737 with 422 on board?

[GaryM]

OK, we'll assume Ukrayinska Pravda got a few things wrong with this article: https://www.yahoo.com/news/boeing-737-422-passengers-onboard-044055292.html

The headline calls it a crash landing, but in the text it is referred to as a forced landing. The cause was "chassis issues". No mention of any injuries. But 408 passengers and 14 crew on a 737?

On the morning of December 1, information was received that an Aeroflot Boeing-737 aircraft, which had taken off from Moscow, was preparing to make an emergency landing at the airport in Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk,” ....

"There were 14 crew members and 408 passengers on board the Boeing-777. The aircraft independently cleared the runway (artificial runway) along the taxiway and was then towed to the parking lot,”

So garbage media reporting is alive and well over there as well.

There you go. Always go to the original source.
Unless it's in Russian. Then wait for someone better educated to do it for you.
(Even in the original, I spot 'Boing' 737 once, and Boeing 777 further down)

The Telegram post that seems to have begat the Russian news article which begat the English one never mentioned 737s at all, just the 777.
