According to various reports, if the glitches were not detected, it could have resulted in something disastrous. Given the gravity of the situation, the plane had to make an emergency landing in the town of Magadan in Russia's Siberia.
There, the 216 passengers and 16 crew members had to suffer through difficulties like issues in accessing food, sleeping spaces, cleanliness, etc. Since Russia was at war with Ukraine, passengers could not even use their credit cards.
