A Pouya Airlines Ilyushin IL-76, registration EP-PUS performing a freight flight PYA-2385 from Teheran Mehrabad (Iran) to Yerevan (Armenia) with 9 crew carrying a load of live stock (sheep), performed an ILS approach to Yerevan's runway 09, usual runway length and landing distance available 3850 meters, the runway 09 end/runway 27 threshold however had been displaced by 1450 meters leaving a landing distance of 2400 meters available. While the aircraft was still in the roll out at 08:29L (04:29Z) tower instructed the crew to stop immediately, however, the aircraft overran the displaced end of runway 09 destroying one of the temporary runway end lights.

Iran's AIB released a preliminary report in Persian stating that Armenian Authorities performed medical checks of the crew and interviews with the crew and informed Iranian Authorities. Initial evidence suggests a misleading NOTAM (which was issued for runway 27 but not runway 09), however, the NOTAMs stated a landing distance of 2400 meters was available, which was sufficient for landing and takeoff with proper preparation. Approach control of Yerevan had reminded the crew that the threshold runway 27 was displaced by 1450 meters.
