Two Ethiopian Mi 35 Attack Helicopter Pilots Disappear
Two Ethiopian Air Force pilots are reported missing yesterday morning with two of their MI-35 helicopters, according to the Ethiopian Satellite Television.
The Amsterdam-based network identified the deserting pilots as Captain Samuel Ghidey and Lieutenant Yililign Mekonen.
It is not clear which county the pilots may have defected to, although it's more than likely to be Eritrea since it's the only country bordering Ethiopia that protects Ethiopian asylum seekers.
If confirmed to have deserted to Eritrea, this would make them the 11th Ethiopian Air Force pilots to have defected to the Red Sea State in 2014.
