What happened
During the final approach phase of the flight, the aircraft struck an embankment situated approximately 60 meters before reaching the runway threshold. The impact caused the nose landing gear to be detached from the airframe. Following the initial collision, the aircraft reached the runway surface but subsequently veered off the paved area. The momentum and impact led to a post-crash fire that engulfed the wreckage.
Despite the intensity of the fire, all 43 occupants were successfully evacuated from the aircraft. Medical reports indicated that 13 individuals sustained injuries during the incident.
Findings
Investigations into the accident determined that the crew failed to maintain sufficient altitude during the approach, leading to the collision with the terrain short of the runway.
