The image displays an airport tarmac in the city of Unknown, Afghanistan, under an overcast sky. A white passenger jet aircraft, identified as "ARIANA AFGHAN AIRLINES" with a blue tail featuring a white bird logo and registration "FGA" visible near the nose, is central to the scene. A mobile boarding stair unit is positioned at the forward left passenger door, through which a continuous stream of individuals is ascending into the aircraft. Another door on the mid-fuselage is also open. Approximately one hundred or more individuals are gathered on the tarmac, many forming queues or standing in groups near the aircraft. Most individuals are adult males dressed in traditional Afghan attire, including shalwar kameez and head coverings. Several individuals are wearing high-visibility yellow or lime green vests, indicating ground staff. A white ground support vehicle is parked to the left of the aircraft. The tarmac is a dark grey, appearing wet in various areas, with white painted markings visible. In the background, low-rise structures resembling airport buildings or hangars are present to the left, and a communications tower or antenna mast is visible to the right.
