During an operation to destroy opium poppy in Mexico, a military helicopter fell

17
In Mexico, a military helicopter crashed. The helicopter of the Mexican Air Force fell on the territory of the State of Guerrero (southwest of the country). As a result of the disaster, one person died. In total, there were two people aboard the helicopter. The fate of the second Mexican Air Force soldier, who was in the cockpit of the helicopter, is not reported.


According to the National Post, the helicopter was involved in the operation to destroy opium poppy plantations located in southern Mexico. The owners of the plantations are Mexican "drug lords", with whom the Mexican army and police are trying to fight without much success.

At the moment there is no information about what caused the crash of the helicopter in the Mexican state of Guerrero. Notes appeared in the segment of social networks in Mexico, which stated that the helicopter could have been shot from the ground by people involved in the system of guarding the places where the narcotic potion was grown. Also in social networks published posts that the surviving soldier could be in the hands of drug traffickers.

        ... it could fall both to the “field” and after ... it’s a matter of chance ... unless of course they have thrown it off the ground, therefore I say that while there is no extended information there is nothing to guess what happened to the board ...

    So let's see if the police will be able to get the second policeman out of captivity, or will receive it in parts!

    In general, the fields of flowering poppy have a hallucinogenic effect on the human body. I read it myself in “The Wizard of the Emerald City.” Helicopter pilots flew too low above the field, so they sniffed it!

    In general, brave guys. Not everyone will decide to fly together over the Kumar, guarded by a "small" army.

      IMHA is not appropriate, the local drug dealers are already building submarines and have long had their own mini-armies, corruption and fear from top to bottom, right from the movie "Octopus", only their armies remind me quite different.

          And readiness to kill all indiscriminately. Regularly find mass graves of "suddenly" missing people, dozens, and even hundreds of often mutilated corpses.
