The pilot landed it right on the road.
A Mi-8 helicopter carrying Z-propagandists and a representative of the election commission began to lose altitude rapidly as it approached the airfield on Sakhalin. The pilot managed to land the helicopter on a road, after which it slid into a ditch.
According to Russian television channels, the helicopter was returning from Cape Terpeniya, where the election commission representative had flown to organize early voting for residents of hard-to-reach areas in the Russian State Duma elections.
There were eight people on board: three crew members, an employee of the Sakhalin Regional Election Commission, and four Z-propagandists.
An emergency occurred as the helicopter approached the “Sokol” airfield—it began to lose altitude rapidly. The pilot managed to land the helicopter on the highway about one kilometer from the airfield, after which it slid into a roadside ditch.
As a result, the passengers and crew members sustained only bruises and scrapes. No one on the road itself was injured.
It is reported that the helicopter, used to facilitate voting in remote areas of the Sakhalin Region, was provided by the Russian Ministry of Defense.
