یہ حادثہ تھا کہ نہیں اس بات کا تعین کرنا اور BRAS کے دعووں کی تصدیق کرنا اب زیادہ مشکل ہوگیا ہے لیکن لسبیلہ سے ایک معتبر صحافی نے مجھے بتایا کہ انہیں ہیلی کاپٹر کے ملبے کی فلم بندی کرنے کی اجازت نہیں دی گئی اور میڈیا کو بھی ملبے کے آس پاس جانے کی اجازت نہیں تھی۔ #HelicopterCrash
سوشل میڈیا پر گردش کرنے والے ہیلی کاپٹر کے ملبے کی تصاویر ممکنہ طور پے جعلی ہیں۔ لسبیلہ کے صحافیوں کے مطابق عین مقام پر میڈیا کو جانے کی اجازت نہیں تھی تاہم 500 میٹر کے فاصلے سے انہوں نے ریسکیو آپریشن کی فلم بندی کی۔ جہاں ہیلی گرا تھا اُس سائٹ کو مکمل گھیرے میں لے لیا گیا تھا
تاہم، جائے وقوعہ پر پہنچنے والے مقامی رضاکاروں کا کہنا ہے کہ وہ ابتدائی طور پر ہیلی کاپٹر کے ملبے کو دیکھنے میں کامیاب رہے ہیں بعد ازاں ممکنہ طور پر تحقیقات کے لیے علاقے کو گھیرے میں لے لیا گیا۔ یاد رہے آئی ایس پی آر کا کہنا ہے کہ ابتدائی تحقیقات سے معلوم ہوا ہے حادثہ
لسبیلہ ضلعی انتظامیہ کے ایک اہلکار کا کہنا ہے کہ ہیلی کاپٹر کے ملبے کی تلاش اب بھی جاری ہے لیکن سہولیات نہ ہونے کی وجہ سے امدادی کارروائیوں میں رکاوٹ پیش آرہی۔ انہوں نے کہا کہ کراچی سے ہیلی کاپٹر کا ملبہ ملنے کی اطلاعات سامنے آئی جس کے متعلق ضلعی انتظامیہ کو کوئی علم نہیں ہے۔
انتظامیہ کے مطابق جس علاقے میں ہیلی کاپٹر گرنے کا امکان ہے وہ "سخت پہاڑی اور دشوار علاقہ" ہے۔
انہوں نے کہا مقامی رضاکار اور پولیس ٹیم لاپتہ ہیلی کواپٹر کو تلاش کرنے نے صبح دوبارہ روانہ ہوۓ ہیں-
نیٹ ورک اور دیگر سہولیات نہ ہونے کی وجہ سے سرچ ٹیموں کو شدید مشکلات کا سامنا ہے۔

لاپتہ ہیلی کاپٹر کی تلاش کے لیے ابھی فضائی آپریشن شروع کیا گیا ہے۔
فضائی آپریشن ضلع لسبیلہ کے مغرب میں دریجی میں شروع کیا گیا ہے۔ قریب ہی ایک ندی ریسکیو آپریشن میں رکاوٹ بن رہی تھی جسکی وجہ سے فضائی آپریشن شروع کیا گیا-

#Taliban spokesman Qari Yosuf Ahmadi, #deleted his defensive tweet after he was called a liar by pro-Taliban SM accounts.
Ahmadi had rejected SM& media reports about a TB Commander, who flown his wife by a military #helicopter from his in-laws family in Logar to Khost, as untrue.

With so much happening in #Ukraine, I decided to take on three shorter topics in a blog post, namely the deep #helicopter strike on #Belgorod, whether #Russia can replace their losses, and what to do with the Ukrainian requests for more advanced weaponry. corporalfrisk.com/2022/04/03/a-u…
I could also shortly comment on the mass killings in #Bucha. This should not be a surprise for anyone by now, it isn't an accident, but it is how the Russian Army and the Soviet before that has operated consistently.
Finland has first-hand experience of it as well, even if we got away easier than many other Eastern European countries. blog.vantagepointnorth.net/2019/12/forgot…

"Added to the food crisis and fallout from the explosion is the increasing bite of U.S. sanctions, mostly targeted at Syria, but also hitting its Lebanese neighbor."

Anticipating Locust attack, Ministry of Agriculture signed a contract with M/s Micron, UK to modify two Mi-17 Helicopters for spraying atomized pesticide to arrest Locust breeding in May 2020.
Due to COVID-19 pandemic, the UK based firm would be able to manufacture and supply the modification kit to IAF only from Sep 2020 onward for system integration and testing.

Two cattle rustlers working on an #InsideJob to steal veal, decided to test their newfound Sharps Buffalo Rifle.
#RanchoDeluxe
The young rustlers' Sharps 1874 Buffalo Rifle test worked just fine - dropping one of the wealthy land-owning rancher's grazing steer dead with a single bullet of such tremendous caliber - "it blowed a hole in him you that could throw a cat through."
However, the folly of the rife-testing young and impatient American cattle rustlers became immediately apparent when a hair-raising #helicopter versus #car chase exciting ensued.
