From the Wikipedia article
Tibet Airlines Flight 9833 was a scheduled commercial passenger flight in China from Chongqing to Nyingchi. On 12 May 2022, the Airbus A319 operating the service suffered a runway excursion, causing both engines to separate, followed by a fire near the front of the aircraft. All 122 people on board were evacuated, and 36 people were minorly injured from the evacuation.
Accident
During the aircraft's takeoff roll, the pilots experienced an "abnormality" and aborted the takeoff. The plane veered off the runway, its engines detaching in the process. The engines, as well as the front of the aircraft, subsequently caught on fire. All 122 passengers and crew were evacuated with 36 of them receiving minor injuries.
Investigation and cause
Investigation
One week after the accident the Civil Aviation Authority of China (CAAC) opened an investigation into the accident.
The CAAC Southwest Regional Administration released its report on 5 June 2024 (in Chinese language only): an English version of the report is also available. It found that the accident was caused by crew error. The CAAC imposed a fine on Tibet Airlines and fined the company's leadership: The two executives primarily responsible were fined 40% of their 2021 income, while three others responsible were fined 30% of their 2021 income. The CAAC also revoked the pilot's licenses of the captain and co-captain and suspended the first officer's pilot's license for six months.
