Azerbaijan Airlines E190 crashes near Aktau Flight J2-8243

It looks to me that it had some problem steering the plane and I think the pilot was changing the engine speed to turn the plane and the angle of approach with the nose slightly higher than the tale was missing which indicates the pilot could not control the plane... and abnormal speed and altitude on approach possibly indicating the pilot was steering the plane with the engine speed.
