On 14 June 2016 a Coco Aviation An 32 (EK 32120) on a World Food Programme humanitarian flight from Juba to Malakal stopped at Bor. After touchdown it could not stop within the runway, overran, lost its undercarriage and came to rest with the left wing broken, and it was damaged beyond repair. All three crew escaped, and the Bor airport director attributed the accident to a mechanical failure of the left gear.
