Have to wonder if this was one of those cases like the Heli pilot that defected (after killing his entire crew) and handed the heli over to Ukraine in return for asylum.
Or if it’s just Russia being Russia and doing stupid shit out of sheer incompetence.

This article says Ukrainian forces killed the crew after they refused to surrender.
And this article says the same thing. Crew freaked out when they realized they landed in Ukraine, ran and refused to surrender.
Are you talking about a different heli pilot that defected?
I also agree that this story is true, and salute the safe families of the brave crew members.
