This has all the symptoms of running out of fuel.

• Both engines fail
• No fire on impact
• Very similar to a B-707 incident a few years ago near JFK

The report noted that: "A significant amount of fuel leaked from the
aircraft but there was no fire."

"Significant" is kind of an ambiguous term. Surely, some fuel would
remain but maybe not enough for a "draw."

OTOH, this is speculation by a casual individual, (me), who has no
official info but just opines based on seat of pants experience...
