Helicopter crash leaves two dead in Russia's Perm region
"Unfortunately, two people died in the crash," officials stated, noting that despite the severity of the accident, no damage was reported on the ground. Emergency services quickly mobilized, deploying around 40 personnel and 14 pieces of equipment to secure the site and manage the aftermath.
An updated account of the incident revealed that the helicopter’s propeller became entangled in overhead cables above a ski slope during takeoff. This mechanical failure caused the aircraft to lose control and crash into the snow.
The crash highlights ongoing concerns about aviation safety in Russia’s regional areas, where private flights are common but infrastructure challenges can pose risks. Investigations are expected to continue as authorities work to determine the full circumstances surrounding the accident.
