I guess he doesn't feel anything right now because he's in coma:/

but R.I.P., there was so many of my favorite players... can't even describe with words how I feel about it.

Galimov (the lone survivor from the team) has over 80% of his body covered in burns; he had a surgery, according to doctors
Neurologists are now saying Galimov (the player-survivor) is unlikely to survive his injuries even after the surgery. Docs keep fighting

Old. It was speculated that he would've been home in Minsk, Belarus (where the plane was heading at) already, but it's now confirmed that he was on the plane, and lost his life aswell.
