There was a commander, co-pilot and flight mechanic on board – they were not injured, Russian public reports said.
In Russia, an Mi-8 helicopter crashed near the village of Sevsk, Bryansk Region. The Russian TG channel Mash reported this today, January 17.
It was reported that the commander, co-pilot and flight mechanic were on board – they were not injured.
During the landing, the helicopter cut the high voltage lines. As a result of the emergency, the electricity supply was stopped in four districts – Sevsky, Suzemsky, Brasovsky, Komaritsky.
In the past, the Main Intelligence Directorate obtained secret documents indicating the collapse of Russian aviation due to sanctions. Documents show that in 2023, the number of accidents and cases of technical malfunctions in Rosavitsa increased significantly. Russia is experiencing serious difficulties in servicing aircraft with long flight times and a severe shortage of spare parts, which is why more than 35% of the aircraft were used for donation. The most problematic areas of Russian aviation remain engines and landing gear.
