One Person Killed After Being Struck by Fokker 50 Propeller in Somalia

A person has reportedly died after being struck by the propeller of a Fokker 50 passenger aircraft in Somalia. The incident is believed to have occurred while the aircraft was on the ground.

On Fokker 50 aircraft, the engines can take some time to come to a complete stop. Propellers rotating at high speeds can be particularly difficult to see at night or in low-visibility conditions.

The airport where the incident occurred, the identity of the deceased and the exact circumstances surrounding the accident have not yet been officially confirmed.
