Accidents and incidents
- On 9 August 2013, Ukraine Air Alliance Flight 751, operated with an Antonov An-12BK (UR-CAG) burned on the ground at Leipzig Airport, Germany. The aircraft had been loaded with live chicks and was preparing for takeoff when a fire broke out in the cargo area. The crew was able to escape before the fire completely destroyed the aircraft.[6] An investigation revealed the fire's source to be an uncontained failure of the auxiliary power unit (APU).

Photos from the scene suggest the aircraft landed in shrubs about 1,5 km short of the runway. The aircraft sustained serious damage. The cause of the accident is perceived to be pilot error due to fatigue.[8]
