Two Russian pilots were killed on Friday when a Russian Mi-28 military helicopter crashed on Russia's annexed Crimean peninsula, Russian news agencies reported, citing the Ministry of Defense.
The Russian Defense Ministry said it believed the cause of the crash was equipment damage.
The accident occurred at 3:42 p.m. local time (12:42 GMT) during a training flight. And, the helicopter flew unarmed, news agencies quoted the Ministry of Defense as saying in a statement.
It said an investigation had been opened to confirm the cause of the crash, which occurred in the Dzhankoi area, North Crimea.
It is known, Russia annexed Crimea from Ukraine in 2014. This Peninsula is recognized internationally as part of Ukraine. Kyiv has vowed to regain control of the peninsula.
Meanwhile, military sites and fuel depots across Crimea have been targeted by drones several times since Russia invaded Ukraine in February, including two weeks ago in an attack on a fuel storage facility in Sevastopol.
