A rehearsal for a military event in Malaysia ended tragically when two of the participating navy helicopters collided mid-air and crashed, killing all 10 on board.

As can be seen in the videos that have recorded the moment of the accident, one of the two helicopters hit the rear propeller of the other causing them to go out of control and eventually crash.

 

According to the BBC, the accident occurred near the city of Lumut, where a naval base is located.

One of the two HOM M503-3 helicopters carrying seven people crashed in a field, while the second, a Fennec M502-6 with three passengers, crashed into a swimming pool in the area.

As the Malaysian navy announced, "all the passengers of the two helicopters are dead and their bodies have been sent to the Lumut base hospital for identification."
