Edited later:
I found documents released by Rosaviatsia (CAA), not the MAK/IAC as identified in the linked PDFs. The release by Rosaviatsia, using the official letter head etc., is word by word identical to what has been created by somebody as MAK/IAC release ... So the origin of this report is Rosaviatsia.
I newer pointed out it's MAK release, just "official". I'm not familiar with western practice of informing pilots about possible dangers before official report is published, but here Rosavia (kind of Ministry of Aviation) usually circulates such letters (in form of telegrams previously) with recommendations based on preliminary findings of investigations.
So first part is just copy of "Known facts" from MAK report and second part can lead us to possible findings of investigation committee.
