The incident happened, when the helicopter was already taxiing along the landing strip after it returned from a recognisance mission prematurely due to heavy rains. For reasons that still remain unknown, the vehicle hit a control tower and lost its tail boom. The accident resulted in no fatalities, but left five of eight crewmembers with injuries ranging from lacerations to bone fractures. They all remain in stable condition for now.
