The aircraft was on a scheduled passenger flight from Istanbul to Diyarbakir. Due to the bad weather conditions at the destination airport, it had to perform a non-precision approach. But it crashed short of the runway and broke apart.
Weather around the time of the accident was poor, with fog and mist reported. Only 5 out of the 80 passengers and crew members survived.
