Phetchaburi – The eight soldiers and the TV cameraman aboard the crashed Black Hawk helicopter are all dead, 1st Army commander Udomdet Seetabut said, describing the tragedy as a "great loss".
Their bodies had been found shortly after searchers found the helicopter's wreckage late Friday morning, about 300 metres inside Burma on the edge of Kaeng Krachan National Park.Rescuers were carrying their bodies to an area adapted as a temporary helipad for airlifting out of the forest on the mist-clouded Tanaosi mountain.
The team face an even harder job than rescuers encountered in extracting and moving the bodies of the five soldiers killed in the first helicopter accident only a short distance away, Lt-Gen Udomdet said. It was further away.
On July 19, the Black Hawk helicopter flew to the rain-soaked mountain to retrieve the bodies of the five soldiers killed in the July 16 crash of the helicopter which had been tasked with lifting out rangers, officials, journalists and an arrested forest encroacher stranded in the forest since July 11.
The Black Hawk flight met the same fate.
Among the nine dead are Surasi Task Force commander Maj Gen Tawan Ruangsri and Sornwichai Khatannukul, a cameraman with the TV Channel 5 army station.
