A sad day? Try a sad year thus far. And we're just barely halfway.

Antonov was - and still is - based in Ukraine. Antonov aircraft in Russia has been without manufacturer service for a while now.

An-24 was primarily developed as a military cargo plane. The passenger version is.. not great. I flew in it once (Aeroflot; Orenburg to Orsk), and that was quite enough.

This particular airline, Angara, was not known for anything not horrible.
