TARBELA: A military helicopter crashed near Tarbela, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, killing at least one, a military source confirmed Monday evening.

The helicopter was on a routine night training flight when it crashed at Tarbela. An army officer has been killed in the incident.

Air accidents involving Mi-17 in Pakistan include a 2004 crash near Karak in which 13 soldiers were killed; a 2007 crash near Muzzafarabad on the occasion of inauguration of development projects there; one in 2009 in Kurram Agency in which 41 people were killed; and another in Skardu in 2012 in which five people died.

Other than the Skardu crash, whose cause is still not known, the rest were said to have been caused because of technical reasons.
