Their swift response helped ensure that no lives were lost, despite the dramatic nature of the crash.
Further reports revealed that the aircraft veered off the runway moments after landing at the Mandera Airstrip in Mandera County from Nairobi.
Witnesses said the plane appeared to lose control shortly after touching down, before skidding off the runway and crashing into nearby vegetation.
The incident caused panic at the airstrip, with passengers and crew scrambling to exit the aircraft as emergency teams rushed to the scene.
Authorities have not yet confirmed the number of people on board at the time of the crash, but all are reported to be safe.
While the exact cause of the loss of control has not been established, investigations have been launched to determine what may have led to the incident.
Officials are expected to examine whether mechanical failure, human error, or weather conditions could have contributed to the crash.
Aviation authorities are also likely to review the condition of the runway and the aircraft as part of the investigation.
Such assessments are standard procedure following incidents involving aircraft to ensure that all possible factors are considered.
Security agencies have since cordoned off the affected section of the runway to allow for safety inspections and recovery of the aircraft.
Access to the site remains restricted as investigators continue their work.
The damaged aircraft is expected to be removed once initial assessments are complete, paving the way for normal operations at the airstrip to resume.
Authorities have not yet indicated how long the process will take.
