The Unity Air Zanzibar Embraer EMB-120 with registration 5H-MJH was involved in the first incident. It was operating a flight from Zanzibar to Kikoboga with 30 passengers and three crew onboard. However, while on approach to the airport, the crew reported problems with the landing gear. Upon landing the right-hand main landing gear, veered off the runway, and came to a stop on soft ground aside from the runway.

While it was accelerating for takeoff, the aircraft suffered a nose gear collapse, veered off the runway, and collided with a building with its right-hand wing before coming to a complete stop.
