According to Russian news agencies, the plane had been rerouted due to heavy fog in Grozny, and the crash was reportedly caused by a collision with a flock of birds.
Initial reports indicate there are survivors, and rescue operations are underway.
Azerbaijan Airlines said there were 67 people on board the crashed plane, including 62 passengers and 5 crew members.
