Srinagar, Mar 11: In a tragic incident, an Indian Army Cheetah helicopter crashed in the Baraum area of the Gurez sector in Jammu and Kashmir on Friday, resulting in the killing of its pilot and injuries to the co-pilot, officials said.
The Army had launched search operations in the snow-bound area for the rescue of the chopper crew.

The Cheetah helicopter, which was carrying a sick BSF jawan, crashed immediately after take-off. The area is located near the Line of Control with Pakistan.
