What happened
During the final approach to Aleppo-Nejrab Airport, the flight crew encountered weather conditions characterized by marginal visibility. While attempting to land, the aircraft descended below the appropriate glide path. Due to the limited visibility and low altitude, the plane struck a building before entering a stall. The subsequent crash occurred a few hundred yards in front of the runway threshold.
The accident resulted in 8 fatalities and 11 injuries among the occupants on board.
Findings
Initial reports indicate that the primary factor leading to the impact was that the crew was completing the approach below the glide path. This low altitude, combined with the degraded weather conditions, prevented the crew from maintaining sufficient clearance from obstacles during the descent.
