Six people have been killed in eastern Russia when a helicopter crashed in Khabarovsk, local authorities said.
The Russian-made Mi-8 helicopter crashed around 11am on Wednesday.
The Investigative Committee of Russia told the Interfax agency that the crash could have been caused due to the weather conditions, a technical glitch or pilot error.
All people killed were crew members carrying out a training flight.
The Mi-8 is a twin-engined aircraft, operated by a crew of three, and capable of transporting up to 24 people or 3000 kilograms of cargo.
