The wing of the twin-engine aircraft clipped nearby stones in the coastal park of Bandar Anzali city, located 266 kilometers (165 miles)northwest of the Iranian capital Tehran, at around 12 p.m. local time (0730 GMT) on Sunday as the plane was about to take off.
A part of the wing was badly damaged and the wheels also came off. One of the occupants broke his leg, while the two others sustained minor injuries.
Rescuers, fire brigades and coast guard officials have been deployed to the scene, and an investigation into the incident is underway. Local officials are trying to transfer the damaged aircraft to the harbor.
An unnamed official at Bandar Anzali harbor told IRNA that the aircraft had been imported from Russia into Iran less than a month ago.
