The 15-Year-Old Girl who was Sitting on Top of the Bomb That Brought Down Russian Jet
This young girl was sitting on top of the bomb that brought down the Russian jet when it went off with the force of 'a kilo of TNT' from underneath her seat.
Maria Ivleva, 15, is thought to have been the first to die in the tragedy above the Sinai as crash investigators narrowed down the source of the explosion to underneath one of two seats.
Investigators say the bomb, which killed 224 people, was underneath either seat 31A, where Maria was sat, or 30A, where 77-year-old Nadezhda Bashakova was sitting directly in front of her.
