The Soviet-made TU-154 carrying Polish President Lech Kaczynski hit the top of trees as it attempted to land at a Smolensk airport in west Russia at 10:50 a.m. (06:50 GMT) on Saturday. There were no survivors among 97 people on board of the plane.

Kaczynski's wife and a delegation of senior Polish officials, including the chief of the General Staff and the head of the national bank, were also on board.
