Australia Helicopter Crash: Osprey helicopter carrying 23 US Marines crashes in Melville island

23 US Marines have been injured after an Osprey aircraft crashed during military exercises in Australia.

5 marines have been transferred to hospital – one of whom is in the operating room – while others are being treated at the scene.

Two US Marine Osprey aircraft left Darwin and flew towards Tiwi Islands, about 80 km away, and one of the aircraft crashed on Melville Island.

Melville Island is located some 60 kilometers north of the Australian mainland in the eastern Timor Sea.

The incident took place during Exercise Predator’s Run 2023.

Numerous accidents involving Osprey military aircraft have been reported over the years.

In 2022 five US Marines had died after their MV-22B Osprey plane crashed during a training mission near California.

The same year four US service members were killed when their Osprey crashed during NATO training exercises in Norway.

Russia Calls U.S An ‘Enemy State’, Months After ‘No-Anti American Sentiment’ Comment

In a recent address to reporters, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov referred to the United States as an “enemy,” signalling a potential hardening of Moscow's rhetoric. While it remains uncertain if this language reflects an official change in policy, Peskov emphasised that only President Vladimir Putin can make such determinations. The Kremlin spokesman's comments were partly in response to Washington's refusal to allow former US Marine, UN weapons inspector, and RT contributor Scott Ritter to travel to St. Petersburg. Peskov described this as “the latest manifestation of the rabid campaign to prevent US citizens from interacting with the Russian Federation.” He suggested that such a refusal would only be “understandable” if it were related to Ritter's former intelligence status. “We are now an enemy country for them – much like they are for us” Peskov stated, noting that travel restrictions on former intelligence officers to hostile countries are common worldwide. #Russia #USA #EnemyState #DmitryPeskov #USRussiaRelations #Geopolitics #InternationalRelations #Kremlin #ForeignPolicy #Putin #USPolitics #AntiAmericanSentiment #GlobalPolitics #Diplomacy #WorldNews ~PR.152~ED.103~
