Exclamation Iranair Tour crash

Has anyone heard about the Iranair Tour (TU 154)crash.And maybe the reason.
Iranian news agency announced "A TU-154 belonging to Iranair Tour crashed this afternoon1445 local time just skidded -off the runway after it's landing gear colapsed shortly after touch down and this caused a fire (Explosion????) braking in the Cabin,which it caused 28 Pax to get killed and more to injure.And the rest not harmed and went to the hotel."
They also added that, none of the flight deck member got harmed.
I also saw the footage; the plane had fire alomost from the mid section.and the engines looked also clean.
Can anyone shed a light to what would be the cause of such accident please?
I 'm interested on this for my own personal experience.appreciated & wish happy and safe flying for everyone.
