Yes, planes crash all the time...

But with the proliferation of shoulder launched SAMs and RPGs ... Who knows, it's a brave new world. :/

Seven mile out puts this aircract at a very dangerous altitude. 3000 to 7000 feet is optimal for shoulder fired SAMs. Especially a large aircraft. I tend to agree with the other poster thought that the odds are this was an accident. We will probably never know.

Sorry, but when I hear crash, charter, poor country, and fog, it is usually a normal crash. I spent lots of time at an airline and studied lots of crashes, it happens, all the time.
