A tragic aviation incident in Russia's Far East has left five people dead after a Russian MI-8 helicopter vanished on July 14. Operated by airline Vzlyot, the aircraft was returning to Magadan after maintenance but crashed near Cape Gadikan in Khabarovsk Krai. Fire-damaged wreckage was discovered on July 16. All onboard—three crew members and two technicians—have been confirmed dead.
The MI-8, a Soviet-designed workhorse, has seen multiple crashes in recent years. Russian authorities are now investigating the cause of this latest disaster as concerns over aviation safety in remote regions grow. Search efforts were hampered by rugged terrain and harsh weather.
Footage from the site shows the devastating aftermath.
