Two helicopters collide during landing in Nepal; one dead, one injured

The collision between two commercial helicopters operating in Nepal's high-altitude tourism and mountaineering corridor has resulted in one confirmed fatality and one injury requiring emergency evacuation. Helicopter operations are essential infrastructure for medical evacuation, supply transport, and Base Camp access in this region. The Civil Aviation Authority of Nepal and District Police have initiated investigations into the cause; findings may affect operational procedures, air traffic management protocols, or landing zone coordination for the dozens of helicopter operators serving the Mount Everest region.
