Following an uneventful flight from Sialkot, the crew completed the approach to Muscat-Seeb Runway 26L. After touchdown, while decelerating, the left main gear collapsed, causing the left engine to struck the ground. The aircraft slid for few dozen metres before coming to rest on the left edge of the runway. All 114 occupants evacuated uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
