I recall AN-124 crash in Irkutsk in 1997 shortly after takeoff, 3 engines out of 4 quit, and altough the reason was not 100% clear most people involved blame fuel or fuel system contamination (ice).

I also aware of a couple incidents involving one engine flameout due to bad fuel quality in Kabul, Afghanistan in recent years, which have not led to the crash.
