Tatlong crew member ang nasugatan matapos na ang Royal Australian Navy MH-60R Seahawk helicopter ay bumagsak habang transiting o papadaan sa silangang bahagi ng Luzon nitong Miyerkules ng gabi, batay sa report ngayong Huwebes ng Armed Forces of the Philippines (AFP).


Ayon kay AFP spokesperson Col. Ramon Zagala, ang tatlong sakay na crew members ay ligtas na narekober ng Royal Australian Navy ship na HMAS Brisbane, kung saan naroon malapit sa lugar.


Sinabi ni Zagala na ang MH60R Seahawk ay nag-o-operate mula sa HMAS Brisbane, na naiulat na may regional presence deployment sa Royal Australian Navy HMAS Warramunga.


“The AFP is still coordinating with its Australian counterparts on the matter and has expressed readiness to provide assistance,” ani Zagala. Base sa reports mula sa Royal Australian Navy, maraming ships ang nagsasagawa ng tinatawag na “a number of navy-to-navy engagements with partner nations” sa Southeast at Northeast Asia.


Sa inilabas na press statement mula sa Australian Department of Defense, ayon sa kanila ang mga crew members ay ligtas na at agad namang nakatanggap ng first aid sa natamo nilang minor injuries.


Ang HMAS Brisbane at HMAS Warramunga ay nagsasagawa na ng pagsisiyasat sa lugar sa anumang debris para alamin at madetermina ang naging dahilan ng insidente.


Ayon kay Rear Admiral Mark Hammond ng Australian Fleet command, bilang pag-iingat aniya, “We have temporarily paused flying operations of the MH-60R Seahawk fleet.”
