The incident had resulted in the death of seven people, including six IAF personnel on board and a civilian on the ground.

“This was a mistake, a big mistake. We admit that,” said Air Chief Bhadauria about the incident. He said that the court of inquiry on the incident has recently been completed. “The helicopter was hit by our own missile. This has been established,” said the Air Chief.
