On May 25th 2023 Ukraine's NBAAI reported the crew did not report the occurrence, damage to the approach lights runway 15L was discovered only the following morning when the aircraft had already departed again. Based on radar data and ground track data (distances between wheels) UR-ZYD was identified to have landed short of the runway contacting the approach lights 172 meters before the runway threshold and leaving a wheel track of about 120 meters length on compacted soil at 21:16Z (Jan 14th 2022). Due to the fact that the aircraft had departed again already, no cockpit voice recorder or flight data recorder data are available to the investigation making an investigation impossible.
