Missing helicopter found crashed in Yakutia, Russia

All four people on board, including the pilot and three passengers, were killed, Russian officials said.

Search efforts were hampered by bad weather from Friday to Sunday. However, on Monday morning, a rescue helicopter spotted the wreckage on a mountainside in the Aldan District of Yakutia.

The emergency beacon on the Robinson R44 II helicopter had been activated last Friday, alerting authorities to its disappearance. (ILKHA)
