The Russian military said one of its helicopters crash-landed in an uninhabited area north of Moscow on May 19, 2020, killing all crew members.

The Defense Ministry said the incident involving a Mi-8 helicopter occurred late Tuesday near the town of Klin, about 56 miles from Moscow. The incident may have been caused by a technical malfunction, officials said.

The ministry didn't clarify how many crew members were on board, but stressed that the helicopter wasn't carrying ammunition and landed‘in a desolate area.’

The Chief Commander of the Russian Aerospace Forces has dispatched a commission to the site of the incident, officials added.
