Three-year-old Zhasmina Leontyeva survived a plane crash in Russia which killed two crew members and three passengers, including the woman who saved her life last Thursday. Local rescue teams rushed to the crash site in Khabarovsk, Russia and heard the girl crying in the woods. She was found sitting next to a woman, who was shielding her with her body. The 44-year-old woman, Olga Laponnikova, was a kindergarten inspector who protected the young girl. The cause of the plane crash is still under investigation, but bad weather conditions, technical failure and crew mistakes may all be blamed.
