The crash of a Mi-24 military helicopter in Côte d'Ivoire on September 10, which killed five people, including three Bulgarians, was caused by bad weather. This is what head of the armed forces, General Lassina Doumbia, quoted by AFP, said after the investigation, BGNES reported.

The helicopter was on a mission, government spokesman Amadou Coulibaly said without giving more details.
