CHAD: Accidents will happen, and a very lucky escape

(N'Djamena)  On Friday at the main airport in CHAD  a SU 25Frogfoot  ground attack aircraft had a little mishap when a missile was launched whilst it was parked up on the runway in front of a French C130 Hercules aircraft, by two strokes of luck the missile was diverted from hitting the Herc after it passed through an empty fuel truck, unfortunately the  diverted missile ended up hitting a house killing 4 people (2 adults and 2 children) as well as injuring 2 others.
