Caption:
Wreckage of a Royal Malaysian Navy helicopters after it collided with another rotors in mid-air in Lumut, Malaysia. 10 killed onboard, on Tuesday April 23, 2024. The choppers were among seven that had taken off simultaneously from the Royal Malaysian Navy (TLDM) Base in Lumut, Perak, shortly after 9am local time to practice for the Navy fleet's open day celebrations in May. The rotors of one aircraft appeared to clip the tail of the second, sending both aircraft hurtling to the ground in deadly tailspins. (Fire and Rescue Department of Malaysia /Handout via EYEPRESS)
