On approach to Vinnitsa Airport, the crew encountered low visibility due to poor weather conditions. On final approach, the pilot-in-command descended to the MDA and as he was unable to establish a visual contact with the runway, he initiated a go-around procedure. Few minutes later, a second attempt to land was also abandoned. During a third attempt, the aircraft descended too low when the right engine struck trees. The aircraft stalled and crashed in a wooded area located near the village of Stadnytsya, about 5 km north of the airport. All nine occupants were killed.

While cruising at an altitude of 7,500 meters on a cargo flight from Dnipropetrovsk to Moscow-Domodedovo Airport, the crew declared an emergency after the engine n°1 caught fire. The crew was cleared to reduce his altitude and to divert to Kharkiv Airport. On descent, the engine n°1 and the left wing partially detached due to intense fire. Out of control, the airplane nosed down to an angle of 90°, overturned and crashed in an open field located 6,5 west of Rakitnoye, about 31 km south of Kharkiv Airport. The aircraft was totally destroyed and all nine occupants were killed.

The Antonov AN-26 departed Lviv-Sknyliv Airport at 1202LT and was climbing to 3,900 meters. En route to Moscow, it was carrying 15 people, most of them officers from the Carpathian Military contingent. While cruising in clouds at an altitude of 3,900 meters, the AN-26 collided with an Aeroflot Tupolev TU-134 registered CCCP-65856 that was descending to Lviv Airport on a flight from Tallinn with 79 people on board. Following the collision, both aircraft entered a dive and crashed in an open field located near the city of Zolochiv, about 60 km east of Lviv. Both aircraft were totally destroyed and all 94 occupants were killed.

Following an uneventful flight from Tallin, the aircraft entered the TMA of Lviv and was cleared to descend from 4,800 meters to 4,200 meters. The crew was informed about the presence of an Antonov AN-26 that took off from Lviv-Sknyliv Airport at 1202LT and was climbing to 3,900 meters. En route to Moscow, the AN-26 was carrying 15 people, most of them officers from the Carpathian Military contingent. At 1212LT, the crew of the TU-134 was cleared to continue to descend below 4,200 meters. One minute later, while cruising in clouds at an altitude of 3,900 meters, both aircraft collided, entered a dive and crashed in an open field located near the city of Zolochiv, about 60 km east of Lviv. Both aircraft were totally destroyed and all 94 occupants were killed.

The crew was engaged in a training mission in the region of Luhansk when both engines flamed out in flight. The crew completed an emergency landing in an open field located near the village of Novobyelaya. All five crew members escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
