When did this accident take place? Link suggests today, but title says yesterday.
Either way, if you're gonna go off runway, there are worse planes than an Antonov to do it in!!

[MAS017]

Fortunately no one perished...

Hope Ivandalavia (having made quite a few Youtube movies of the AN-24) is not part of the (injured) crew...he's flying for Iraero...
