"The helicopter was flying at too low altitude in thick fog and the pilot noticed the multi-storey building too late. Seeing an obstacle, the pilot took a sharp roll, as a result of which the helicopter fell on a nearby kindergarten", - a source in the department told the publication (quoted by TASS).

According to Strana, such conclusions are described in the preliminary data of experts investigating the disaster.

The red beacon did not work on the high-rise building, which could prevent timely detection of the high-rise in fog conditions. The reason for this was the blackout.The helicopter crash became known on the morning of January 18.
