An "interesting" landing found on YT. Same a/c type, same RWY...
A link would help, you know YT is a big place.

Looking at the diagrams and pictures, this runway's RSA does not seem to be at least 1000ft. FAA regs would require EMAS if it could not provide at least 1000ft RSA. This has been written in blood, many times over, why disregard it?

Russia can not seem to get out of this airline accident rut it seems to stay in year after year. You have to question weather a proper safety culture can prosper in the place. I don't think the equipment is the problem, I think mindset and culture need to change before anything improves.
