Mighty lucky that there wasn't a fire and all crew are still alive...

Too much cargo, perhaps.

WOW- glad these guys made it through. My guess based on past incedents
would be a hard landing that went unreported or poorly inspected, or a
cargo shift. Any ideas BTB ?

Talk about a miss representation of facts..
no one yet knows the facts..
for some reason the aircraft did not have a successful take off..
more than likely an aborted take off, which caused the over running of the
available runway
and the aircraft broke apart because of the rough terrain
I would doubt that the aircraft failed to take off because it broke in two..
parts would be more widely scattered.

Too much opinion, too little intelligence, perhaps.

It's Kallita Air - no need to say more... But I'm sure Bertie will add
to that.

Exactly what I was thinking but I didnt want to say it G. The
article didnt mention an RTO but of course that is a posibility.
