Five Pakistan Army personnel, including Major Atif and Major Faisal, tragically lost their lives when an MI-17 helicopter went down near Hudor village, about 12 kilometers from Thakdas Cantonment.
The incident happened around 10 a.m. during what was supposed to be a routine training flight. Initial reports suggest that the crash was caused by a technical fault in the aircraft. Along with the two officers, Flight Engineer Naib Subedar Maqbool, Havaldar Jahangir, who was serving as a crew chief, and Naik Amir, also a crew chief, were on board and all of them sadly did not survive.
