Of unknown provenance, with unknown visual artefacts, et cetera. Even if completely legit, with context and thus chain of causation obscured to the point that discerning ultimate and proximate causes is impossible.
The city the incident took place in has a subreddit. Feel free to go take a look and judge for yourself. It's a bit NSFW at the moment.

It’s the usual emotional coping through baseless speculation. There are healthier ways to deal with uncertainty amidst tragedy.
We know it called mayday and then lost communication. It also stopped transmitting GPS data.
Looking at this it likely lost all electric power. The electric power comes from generators driven by the turbines.
If you lose both turbines you lose electricity. You also lose the hydraulic system so you can not get in the gear or change flaps.
Occam's razor checks out.
By the way, the age old rule is "Aviate, Navigate, Communicate" in that order of priority. So it could be they just had their hands full with the Aviate part.
I guess they're just for the time until the RAT kicks in. Or to augment it.
Ps there's also the APU, a small turbine in the tail for generating electricity.
