Malaysian helicopters collide in military training exercise, killing all 10 crew

Two Malaysian navy helicopters collided and crashed while rehearsing for the navy's 90th anni9versary celebration, killing all 10 people on board.

A video circulating on social media purported to be of the incident shows several helicopters flying low in a formation. One of the helicopters veers sideways and clips the rotor of another helicopter, causing both to plunge and crash. A local police officer, who declined to be named because he isn’t authorized to speak to the media, confirmed the footage is genuine.

The two choppers were mangled beyond recognition. Rescue workers sifted through the debris to find the bodies. The victims included three women and seven men aged between 26 and 41, authorities said.
