A military helicopter made crash landing in the garden of a school in southeastern Bitlis province on Saturday.

The helicopter, which departed from southeastern Diyarbakir province for eastern Van province, flew low for a while over Bitlis and then landed in the garden of 100. Yil Ataturk elementary school.
Sources said that the helicopter, which had three crew members, made forced landing due to heavy snowfall and fog.
The helicopter took off after standing half an hour at the garden.
