Data on striking Russian Mi-24 helicopter over Armenia confirmed

416

Various information sources with links to the official structures of Armenia write about the fall of a Russian helicopter on Armenian territory. According to the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Armenia, a helicopter with Russian servicemen on board crashed near the village of Yeraskh. It is just a few kilometers from the Armenian-Azerbaijani border.

Armenian sources write that the Russian helicopter was probably shot down.



These reports are published by the "Sputnik Armenia" portal with reference to an unnamed source in the Russian military structures.

According to the latest information we are talking about the Mi-24 helicopter. Various media reports say that the Russian rotorcraft was attacked from the ground using a portable anti-aircraft missile system.

It is reported that two Russian servicemen aboard the Mi-24 were killed.

The updated data by the present moment suggests that the information about the loss of the helicopter over Armenia is confirmed by the Russian Ministry of Defense.

If the attack on the Russian helicopter was carried out with the knowledge that the car was Russian, then this is another reason to talk about the clear desire of individual forces to involve Russia in the armed conflict in Nagorno-Karabakh. In such a situation, the Russian authorities have already turned to the parties to the Transcaucasian conflict for clarification.

      What was he doing there? Didn't they know that it was unsafe to fly in a combat area? Who sent them there?
      And the dead are truly sorry!

                  It is necessary to give such a response to Azerbaijanis so that there are no more such mistakes.

                  Statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan

                  According to information received from the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Azerbaijan from the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, on November 9 this year. at 18:30 a military helicopter Mi-24 of the Russian Federation was shot down on the Nakhchivan section of the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border.

                  In this regard, the following should be emphasized:

                  - the helicopter flight took place in close proximity to the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border, while active military clashes continue in the zone of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

                  - the flight took place in the dark, at low altitude, outside the air defense radar detection zone.

                  - RF Air Force helicopters have not previously been seen in the specified area.

                  In the context of these factors and in the light of the tense situation in the region and increased combat readiness in connection with possible provocations of the Armenian side, the duty combat crew decided to open fire to kill.

                  The Azerbaijani side apologizes to the Russian side in connection with this tragic incident, which is accidental and was not directed against the Russian side.

                  The Azerbaijani side expresses its sincere condolences to the families of the killed crew members and wishes the injured people a speedy recovery.

                  The Azerbaijani side declares its readiness to pay appropriate compensation.

We will let off steam here, we will bomb everyone, but between the states we have our own style of communication, so we will also accept an apology and compensation and pilots for awards posthumously. Amers have the expression "Friendly fire". One is perplexing. In the same Syria, we found an opportunity to coordinate actions between our Aerospace Forces and the coalition, why is this not implemented here? The war did not start yesterday, and I am sure that there are or should be contacts with the RF Ministry of Defense.

                The Russian Mi-24 helicopter crashed in Armenia near the village of Yeraskh, the Russian Defense Ministry reports.
                The incident occurred on Monday at about 17:30 pm Moscow time, when a helicopter was escorting a convoy to the 102nd Russian military base near the border with Azerbaijan.
                "Mi-24 was exposed to fire from the ground from MANPADS. As a result of the missile hit, the helicopter lost control and fell in a mountainous area on the territory of Armenia."

                Let's think about it! The first thing that comes to mind is the provocation of Armenia. Pashinyan really needs to involve Russia in this war, at the suggestion of the "Washington regional committee", or for other reasons, we will not "wang". The real version is quite!
                DRG Turks? Quite possibly, with the composition of the Syrian "barmaley", and the "boys" there are also literate and know how to fight. Goal? Revenge for the destruction of the Barmaley by the Russian Aerospace Forces in Idlib is quite possible. It is possible to draw the Russian Federation into this conflict and divert forces and resources from Syria.
                "Mamed"? It is also quite possible. At the "request" of Turkish brothers or overseas comrades !?
                Of course, only a thorough, timely investigation can yield any results.
                MI 24 accompanied the 102nd base column, the crew had a flight mission! Leaked info, drain, waited ??? I'm not sure that someone sat down with MANPADS and waited for our helicopter at random !?
                There are many versions! There are more speculations!
                Unfortunately, there are our victims! Sorry! Everlasting memory!

                    Statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan

                    According to information received from the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Azerbaijan from the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, on November 9 this year. at 18:30 a military helicopter Mi-24 of the Russian Federation was shot down on the Nakhchivan section of the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border.

                    In this regard, the following should be emphasized:

                    - the helicopter flight took place in close proximity to the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border, while active military clashes continue in the zone of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

                    - the flight took place in the dark, at low altitude, outside the air defense radar detection zone.

                    - RF Air Force helicopters have not previously been seen in the specified area.

                    In the context of these factors and in the light of the tense situation in the region and increased combat readiness in connection with possible provocations of the Armenian side, the duty combat crew decided to open fire to kill.

                    The Azerbaijani side apologizes to the Russian side in connection with this tragic incident, which is accidental and was not directed against the Russian side.

                    The Azerbaijani side expresses its sincere condolences to the families of the killed crew members and wishes the injured people a speedy recovery.

                    The Azerbaijani side declares its readiness to pay appropriate compensation.

                    The helicopter flew several kilometers from the border. What is the radius of MANPADS? The calculation probably climbed into the adjacent territory. And in general, based on this statement, it is now possible to shoot down planes and helicopters on a foreign territory simply because they used to have nothing flying there, but now they can fly? Interesting. You can shoot down any aircraft approaching the border and then apologize ... Or our S-300 and S-400 do not know how to shoot? Well, it seemed ... Suddenly it will fly in our direction, but here for safety and ... Moreover, a precedent has been created. We need to act in such a way that they are even afraid to turn in our direction. But our diaspora of these "comrades" is too big. After all, they are connected with their own history. And the conditions must be created for them appropriate. According to the situation, without fanaticism.
                    I don't know ... They spit at us, and we wipe ourselves off ...

                  I'm not sure that someone sat down with MANPADS and waited for our helicopter at random !?

                  Before drawing conclusions, please consider the following facts.
                  1. The helicopter was shot down on the border of Nakhichevan (Azerbaijan) and Armenia.
                  2. The range of MANPADS - this indicates how close to the border it flew.
                  3. The helicopter flew at low altitudes.
                  4. No warnings were made to the Azerbaijani side about the fact that the Russian helicopter should fly over.
                  5. What does the Russian helicopter do during the war on the borders of Armenia and Azerbaijan? The Russian military controls the border with Turkey and Iran, not Azerbaijan.

                  I think this is sabotage or deliberate provocation.

                          Israel does not climb into other people's wars. Syria is an example of this. Unlike the Russian Federation, there is not a single soldier on the territory of Syria and we do not support any of the parties. Everyone who attacks us gets a response.

Like Raikin's, we play here, we don't play here, but here we wrap the fish. And the passage that in other people's wars you do not directly participate in something. Do you mean there are no Israeli soldiers? I agree. However, you do not hesitate to achieve your goals with someone else's hands. I would understand if someone spoke unfoundedly from outsiders. However, your personalities shed details on events of various kinds, it is enough to look at Eaton TV. Again, what Israel considers a foreign war.

                Under the Soviets, it was not uncommon for Soviet helicopters to fire from the Turkish side, believing that the helicopters had crossed the border. These are two.

              The level of training of combat pilots is surprising. She, preparation, is just about nothing. The Mi-24 is equipped with a launch detection complex. Heat traps are the same.

            Actually, the Russian base is on the Turkish border, and here we are talking about the Azerbaijani ...

            So I have a question, what was the Russian helicopter doing there ......... read

            Statement of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan

            According to information received from the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Azerbaijan from the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, on November 9 this year. at 18:30 a military helicopter Mi-24 of the Russian Federation was shot down on the Nakhchivan section of the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border.

            In this regard, the following should be emphasized:

            - the helicopter flight took place in close proximity to the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border, while active military clashes continue in the zone of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

            - the flight took place in the dark, at low altitude, outside the air defense radar detection zone.

            - RF Air Force helicopters have not previously been seen in the specified area.

            In the context of these factors and in the light of the tense situation in the region and increased combat readiness in connection with possible provocations of the Armenian side, the duty combat crew decided to open fire to kill.

            The Azerbaijani side apologizes to the Russian side in connection with this tragic incident, which is accidental and was not directed against the Russian side.

            The Azerbaijani side expresses its sincere condolences to the families of the killed crew members and wishes the injured people a speedy recovery.

            The Azerbaijani side declares its readiness to pay appropriate compensation.

                I am truly sorry for the pilots. But I have other questions. The range of MANPADS is not great (how close it flies near the border). Why does a Russian helicopter fly near the border at low altitudes in the evening knowing that they have not flown here before, all the more there is a war between Azerbaijan and Armenia ...

                Who made the pilots fly this route at such a time?

          In such a situation, the Russian authorities have already turned to the parties to the Transcaucasian conflict for clarification.

          I think so ... this is pure diversion. If this is the business of the Armenians, in order to drag Russia into this conflict, then Pashinyan should be dragged to Moscow by the nostrils, and not ask for explanations. If they are Azeibarjanians, then wipe out a couple of regiments of Azeibarjan manpower from the face of the earth, so that in the future it would not even enter the mind to do the same with respect to the citizens of the Russian Federation.
          The citizens of the Russian Federation were killed, and the Kremlin is chewing snot again and asks for clarification.

                considering what you wrote, why would Azerbaijan do this? The question is different. Why does a Russian helicopter fly to the border with Azerbaijan without warning to the Azerbaijani side during wartime and at low altitudes? And considering that it was shot down through MANPADS, it means flying near the border. And the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry also says that Russian helicopters did not fly there. Yes, and according to the agreement with Armenia, Russia controls the Turkish and Iranian border and not the Azerbaijan one.

                Azerbaijan is not a suicide to do this on purpose. The question is, who and why made the pilots fly across the border at night and knowing that Azerbaijan is waiting for provocations from Armenia along the entire border.

                I don’t understand this.

                But I feel that either in the ranks of the Russian army there are saboteurs who work in the interests of Armenia .............. or in the Gyumri Base from and to in the interests of Armenia they serve and do everything to involve Russia in this war ...

          If the helicopter is really shot down and the pilots died ... Russia has many ... many reasons to intervene in this conflict. Militants from Syria on the territory of Azerbaijan and their replacement now with other militants - mountaineers with experience in military operations in the mountains, people from the Caucasus ... greatly aggravate the situation around Karabakh ...
          ... And Pashinyan is still in power and is well ...
          It is a sin to harness such an ally, especially in a conflict of SUCH nature, but it looks like Azerbaijan is doing too much that will lead to Russia's intervention.
          If Azerbaijan becomes a threat (!) To the security of Russia in the Caucasus (international terrorists are natives of Chechnya, Dagestan, Georgia), then it may happen that the issue will have to be solved radically, and not in Karabakh.
          ... Aliyev was just given carte blanche in Karabakh ...
          The fusion of the Azerbaijani Armed Forces with international terrorism can have a very bad effect on the future of this country. The war for the return of their lands is sacred in the eyes of the people and fair for those around them, but (!!!) the involvement of international terrorists puts Azerbaijan on a par with ISIS and Al-Qaeda (prohibited in the Russian Federation and not only).
          Does Azerbaijan need such a status?
          Is he ready for the consequences arising from this mistake?
          Does he (Azerbaijan) need these, now inevitable, consequences?
          And does he need enmity with Russia, the evidence of which is the helicopter shot down today?
          The helicopter can be an annoying mistake ... but the terrorists ... it's much worse.

              If ethnic Armenians arrive in Karabakh from Syria and Lebanon, this is their choice and their solidarity with their fellow tribesmen. It's another matter if they are Kurds and other combatants, they are mercenaries.
              In the same way, no one will consider an Azerbaijani guy from the Diaspora as a mercenary (and there are no less of them than in the Armenian Diaspora), if he comes to the war in Karabakh, this is his right and his choice.
              We are talking about INTERNATIONAL TERRORISTS from Al-Qaeda, ISIS and their units and iterations.
              If you decide to fight for your land, fight yourself, this is your land (?).
              Now about the downed helicopter.
              A Russian helicopter was shot down over the territory of Armenia OUTSIDE THE CONFLICT ZONE, while escorting a RUSSIAN military convoy.
              Don't you think this is a "casus bailey"?
              Don't you think that the rocket calculations of the Russian Army can also be mistaken? Only a lot more weighty!
              And then apologize that it was just "an error occurred."
              After that, the Investigative Committee and the Prosecutor's Office of the Russian Federation will deal with Azerbaijani business in Russia ... and compliance with migration legislation.
              But Russia didn’t prevent you from solving your “Karabakh issue”.

              Okay, Armenians, for them to drag Russia into a conflict is a dream and a chance for survival ... And even many visitors to our site were increasingly inclined to the correctness of Azerbaijan's claims to Karabakh.
              ... I doubt that their opinion remains the same today.

            Therefore, no one expected such impudence and swindling from the Azerbaijani side.
            But he waited!
            Russia guaranteed Armenia (as a member of the CSTO) territorial integrity within its state borders.
            Karabakh is not included in these borders.
            It is for these purposes that Russia is placing its observation posts on the border with Azerbaijan.
            Russia was in its own rights and acted quite legitimately.
            But the actions of the Azerbaijani side can be viewed as an act of direct, unprovoked aggression.
            And the conflict in Karabakh has nothing to do with it.

          The 102nd Russian military base was created in accordance with the Treaty on the Legal Status of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation on the Territory of Armenia, signed on August 21, 1992, and the Treaty on the Russian military base on the territory of the Republic of Armenia dated March 16, 1995

          The agreement on the operation of the base was concluded for a period of 25 years, and was extended for another 49 years (until 2044) during the visit of Russian President Dmitry A. Medvedev to Armenia in 2010. As Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov explained, the questions for which the Russian military will be responsible relate to the territory of Armenia, that is, in the event of any external threat to Armenia, this will be considered as an external threat to Russia.

          At the end of the formation of the United Group of Forces of Russia and Armenia in 2017, the military base became part of the grouping together with units of the Armed Forces of Armenia

            Oh yes, I ran to ask for forgiveness and apologized. And then he closed the gas branch in Turkey, began to fight with the Russian "ally" and, perhaps, with the Russian Federation itself, not with his own hands. With the help of Azerbaijan, it knocks Armenia out of NK and, accordingly, Russian influence in the region. And he does a lot, in addition to the already shed blood and shot down planes with turntables.

              Cover the gas line? So right now the crisis, in Turkey, almost the entire summer season broke down, this is minus billions of green profits from tourists. Azerbaijan asked Russia to peacefully put pressure on Armenia for 30 years and return at least 5 out of 7 regions not included in Karabakh itself? I asked. There was no result. And then Turkey turned up, just need gas because the crisis, pandemic, there are no tourists, little money. And so everything is clear. And the Russian influence in the region is knocked out by the Armenians who burned Russian flags and shouted Russians to get out of Armenia. Armenians in many Russian media, Lavrov is Armenian. Armenians parasitize on Russian hospitality. Armenia still has not betrayed the murderer of the Russian special forces soldier Belyankin. In the 90s, Colonel Chekmarev was killed in Armenia. Now the American biolaboratories of the 3rd level have been installed in Armenia.

              The Turkish plane also circled in this square in advance, but not enough to dump it for refueling. How long did our people fly to Turkey there? For a few seconds? Enough! Conclusion? Carefully planned surgery.

        I remember the Mozgovoy Russian knight, he felt that it was beginning ... soldier

        Well, guys, the adversary acts in a cunning manner, he struck a blow where Russia was not waiting for him.

        It feels like it won't take long. We are very sorry for our guys.

        ⚡️Statement by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Azerbaijan

        According to information received from the Ministry of Defense of the Republic of Azerbaijan from the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, on November 9 this year. at 18:30 a military helicopter Mi-24 of the Russian Federation was shot down on the Nakhchivan section of the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border.

        In this regard, the following should be emphasized:

        - the helicopter flight took place in close proximity to the Armenian-Azerbaijani state border, while active military clashes continue in the zone of the Armenian-Azerbaijani Nagorno-Karabakh conflict.

        - the flight took place in the dark, at low altitude, outside the air defense radar detection zone.

        - RF Air Force helicopters have not previously been seen in the specified area.

        In the context of these factors and in the light of the tense situation in the region and increased combat readiness in connection with possible provocations of the Armenian side, the duty combat crew decided to open fire to kill.

        The Azerbaijani side apologizes to the Russian side in connection with this tragic incident, which is accidental and was not directed against the Russian side.

        The Azerbaijani side expresses its sincere condolences to the families of the killed crew members and wishes the injured people a speedy recovery.

      Hmmm... the highlighted one explains a lot. They put the men in prison for not taking a sniff of tobacco. If the Azerbaijanis write the truth in their note and our crocodiles never flew there, we would understand why it was now necessary to accompany the convoy at such a tense time and in such conditions, close not just to the border, but to positions where everyone’s fingers are on the triggers.. .

      It’s good that they didn’t fuss, they immediately apologized, admitted their guilt and offered compensation.
      Let's see how it ends, Azerbaijan practically won the war, judging by the names of the last villages, they actually went from Shushi to Stepanakert and stand on its outskirts, plus they actually took Martuni-Khojavend.
      This situation with our Mi-24 of Armenia is very beneficial, I hope the security officers are not sleeping there and are already establishing how and why our helicopter ended up there, an accident and a tragedy, or someone decided to play along with the Armenians at the cost of the lives of our men. God forbid there was betrayal. All versions need to be examined under a microscope, all this happened very “just in time” and it’s not only the Azeri offensive in Karabakh, but also when in Yerevan a bunch of parties began to demand Pashinyan’s resignation. I really hope that the largest embassy did not find one among ours and this is precisely a tragic coincidence of circumstances or even someone’s bungling.

      Azerbaijan admitted that it accidentally shot down a Russian Mi-24 helicopter. This was reported by the country's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
      The department explained that the error occurred due to the fact that the helicopter was flying in close proximity to the Armenian-Azerbaijani border, while active military clashes continued during the Nagorno-Karabakh conflict. The flight took place in the dark, at low altitude and outside the radar detection zone of air defense systems, according to the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry. In addition, Russian helicopters had not previously been seen in the area where the incident occurred, the report said.
      Due to the tense situation in the region and increased combat readiness in connection with “possible provocations by the Armenian side,” the combat crew on duty decided to open fire to kill, the Foreign Ministry said.
      “The Azerbaijani side apologizes to the Russian side in connection with this tragic incident, which was accidental and was not directed against the Russian side,” the department said in a statement.
      Baku expressed its readiness to pay compensation in connection with the incident.
      The Azerbaijani side expressed condolences to the families and friends of the deceased crew members.
      Earlier, the Russian Ministry of Defense reported that the Mi-24 was shot down in the airspace over the territory of Armenia outside the combat zone. The helicopter was escorting a convoy of the 102nd Russian military base when it was hit by a MANPADS. As a result of the Mi-24 crash, two crew members were killed, one was evacuated with moderate injuries.

Who doesn't wipe their feet on it? All and sundry. And why? Yes, because there is no response - harsh and such that in the future it will not be the same for others! And now they’ll dry themselves off, they’ll express their regret and that’s it. Bastards in the Kremlin!!!! As long as such vile people are there, our guys will die with impunity from any country - be it small or large!

      Why use the Mi-24 where a reconnaissance UAV is sufficient - like women are still giving birth to pilots?

      P.S. As compensation, expel all Azerbaijani citizens from Russia and annex Nakhichevan to Armenia.

      Now it is clear why the Turkish delegation came. We agreed on further actions. Aliyev was apparently dizzy with success. They defeated the militia with a total advantage also through the hands of Turkey, now apparently they have decided to teach Russia a lesson. If Putin swallows this, then he needs to immediately declare that we are a peace-loving state and are leaving wherever they tell us. Or, even then, think about how to do it so that no one else would think of shooting down our planes and killing our citizens.

      Is Russia a great power or what??? Azer is flooded with terrorists in the Caucasus, and Russia is only expressing concern

      So what kind of compensation should suit Russia? Deport all Azerbaijanis from Russia? I am for it (maybe then the Armenians will reach it too). Financial support for family members of the victims? - Naturally. Recapture Shusha and 5 districts for Armenia? What does this have to do with it?


      Take three boxes of tomatoes and that’s it. And the main thing is to express concern.... I highly recommend reading Suvorov, what should be done with the Turks, Pinocchio your head.

      The Mi-24 accompanied the convoy to the Russian base.
      Who conducted reconnaissance in the conflict area?
      Who gave the command to advance the column without reconnaissance?
      Why one “spinner” and not a link with cover?
      Maybe it’s time to hold accountable the military leaders who send Su-24s to work without cover. And for other brainless decisions.

      1. Russia will be beaten until it shows strength. If he wipes himself off now, they will continue to beat him. You will still have to fight, the only question is time. “We retreated silently for a long time...”
      2. Who allowed the Russian helicopter to be shot down? Didn't intelligence know that Azerbaijanis were patrolling with MANPADS? Wasn’t there enough imagination to organize the flight in such a way that the helicopter would not be shot down on purpose/accidentally?

      Most similar to Turkish handwriting. Such an arrogant and at the same time stupid move, counting on any of 2 outcomes: 1) either to provoke Russia into military action 2) or, at a minimum, to force a complete cessation of military-technical support to Armenia, and through this to the NKR, where the Turkish The UAV has become somewhat uncomfortable over the past few days. Problem. In theory, the supply of military equipment and military experts for Armenia should be increased at an accelerated pace, but hands cannot be raised on how to do this with such a government of the same Armenia and its pro-American president. Looks like I'll have to grit my teeth and wipe myself off. It's a pity.

      Guidance along a standard route was carried out from Israeli and Turkish radars.
      The TV professionals were in the most favorable place.

      2. Shooting point. Finding it is not that difficult. Well, work with the population on the topic of who filmed? Maybe guests, or relatives who came to visit..... Full name
