Asiana Airlines flight OZ324, an Airbus A321, was descending towards Seoul-Incheon International Airport (ICN) when it was shot at by South Korean troops.
Two marine guards on Gyodong Island, about 35 km north-northwest of ICN, fired 99 rifle rounds with their K-2 rifles at the aircraft after they mistook it for a North Korean aircraft.
The plane was too far off the rifle's range and it did not receive any damage.
