They act as if these birds just fall out of the sky on a weekly basis.
I had a look at some satellite imagery and other weather data for the area, assuming the crash was shortly after take-off from the context, weather did not look to be the most obvious factor, the ITCZ is well north of this area at present and not very strong in any case, local weather looked showery but nothing very intense indicated. Crashes shortly after take-off are often terrorism-related.
