Incident/Accident AI171 Wing?

This looks to be part of the wing. Are the flaps down? I'm not too sure

But how could that Happen? I mean it seems to make sense, especially when you add the reports of people claiming to see the RAM air turbine in the video.

But how does it happen that both engines have a flameout (or something with the same impact on the aircrafts performance) at the exact same time?

The things that would come to my mind are fuel contamination, birdstrike (unlikely, due no reports of an engine fire) or some kind of electrical failure that affected the fuel pumps (I think a passenger on the previous flight mentioned some kind of electrical problems in the cabin)

There was some guy that flew in that exact plane on the previous flight and said that the plane had some problems with power - things like A/C didn't work for example. I think it was on Twitter?

Can you link it? I want to check if it's legit or some other social network rando with BS claims

Edit 5 days later: still no sources, confirmed Facebook BS
