An Iranian military helicopter crashed in the city of Dorcheh, in Iran on Tuesday (24 February), causing the death of the pilot, co-pilot and two market sellers, state media reported.
It reportedly hit a market, triggering a fire, which was later extinguished by emergency services.
The helicopter was on a training mission at the time of the crash, according to Iran’s semi-official Mehr News Agency.
Experts say the accident adds to concerns about Iran’s air safety record, which has been marked by repeated incidents involving ageing aircraft and maintenance challenges involving aircraft bought before the 1979 Islamic Revolution and lacking original spare parts.
