What happened
A military cargo mission operating between Kabul and Jalalabad ended in a fatal crash during the final stages of the flight. As the aircraft was performing its approach to the runway at Jalalabad, it was struck by a Stinger missile. The impact caused the plane to crash a short distance from the airfield, resulting in an immediate post-crash fire.
There were eight fatalities among the occupants of the aircraft. No survivors were reported following the destruction of the airframe.
Findings
Official investigations concluded that the primary reason for the loss of the aircraft was that it was shot down by a Stinger missile during its descent.
