Narrative:Crashed killing the two pilots and two high ranked military officers. A female sergeant major (3rd crew member) survived but suffered serious injuries.

At that stage it was engaged with power lines near Sarantaporo town and crashed. The helicopter had been on a routine border patrol flight.
