At least three people, including a civilian and two soldiers, died after a military helicopter crashed into a residential house in Uganda.
According to Brigadier General Felix Kulayigye, the spokesperson for the Ugandan army, the incident occurred near the border with the Democratic Republic of Congo on Tuesday.
The abrupt and fatal collision has left the community in shock, prompting urgent investigations into the circumstances surrounding this tragic accident.
The implications of this unforeseen disaster are likely to resonate beyond the immediate vicinity, raising questions about the safety protocols and operational factors that may have contributed to the untimely demise of the military aircraft.
The Ugandan army has been conducting airstrikes against the Islamic State-linked Allied Democratic Forces (ADF) militants, who have carried out several attacks in Ntoroko.
President Yoweri Museveni has called for the activation of paramilitary local defence units to support the army in fighting the militants.
