ILS to runway 09 was out of service which may have been a player. Maybe the thieves stole the antennas again to sell for scrap metal.

VABB A0655/20 ILS RWY 09 NOT AVBL DUE TO REPLACEMENT OF EQUIPMENT. 13 MAY 05:00 2020 UNTIL 15 JUN 05:00 2020 ESTIMATED. CREATED: 13 MAY 05:02 2020

They may have just put the nosewheel in the mud. I had a colleague land somewhere else and find out that a runway exit he planned to use was Notamed closed on page 17 of the paperwork. He dragged a bogie through the grass trying to turn around on the runway. No damage but since it occurred before he exited the runway after landing it was declared a runway excursion and a major investigation complete with hearings and transcribed testimony was held.
