Narrative:
On takeoff, both left tires were blown and shortly after, the aircraft lost all electrical system. Therefore, the takeoff was aborted, fire trucks met the aircraft after landing, indicating to the captain that the aircraft was ok. Passenger and crew deplaned using ramp stand. There was no need for an evacuate/evacuation using slides, and no one suffered any injuries -- passenger or crew members.
