He also said that the government is waiting for the final report from Roscosmos on the Proton-M with three Glonass-M satellites that crashed shortly after it was launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome on July 2.

Almost immediately after leaving the launch pad the rocket deviated sharply from its flight path, and began to disintegrate in mid-air, the fell to the ground no far from the launch pad and exploded.
