From the Wikipedia article
On 18 July 2022, a Jubba Airways Fokker 50 operating a domestic flight from Baidoa to Mogadishu crashed while landing on runway 05 of Aden Adde International Airport, Mogadishu, Somalia. All 36 occupants survived the accident; 16 passengers who were injured were admitted to hospital.
The accident
The Jubba Airways flight departed from Baidoa Airport for a 120 nmi domestic flight bound for Aden Adde International Airport, in Mogadishu, Somalia. At 11:28 (EAT), during the landing phase, the aircraft struck runway 05 violently, with the left wing hitting the ground and separating from the fuselage, causing the aircraft to overturn and veer off the runway. A small fire ensued which was quickly extinguished by the airport firefighters. Members of the United States Army's 2nd Security Force Assistance Brigade, who were present at the time of the accident and were carrying out medical training, intervened to provide first aid. No fatalities were recorded in the accident.
Investigation and cause
Investigation
The Somali Civil Aviation Authority opened an inquiry into the accident. According to the investigators' reconstruction, when the aircraft was about to land the phenomenon of wind shear occurred, causing a loss of control and a violent impact of the aircraft on the runway.
