Quote from the Prosecutor’s Office: “After search and rescue operations, the Robinson aircraft was found completely destroyed. The bodies of the pilot and three passengers have been found.”

Details: Earlier, it was reported that the Robinson helicopter disappeared in the Aldano-Uchur Mountains on 19 July.

Media reports indicated that the pilot and three FSB officers were on board.

Why this matters: After sanctions were imposed on Russia due to its bloody war against Ukraine, there has been an increase in aircraft accidents in Russia. This surge is attributed to a shortage of essential parts that Russia previously imported from Western countries.
