The 2007 Shatoy Mi-8 crash happened on April 27, 2007, when a Russian military Mil Mi-8 helicopter carrying special forces and officers crashed in southern Chechen mountains, killing all 20 people aboard. The incident is the largest officially acknowledged loss of life for federal troops in Chechnya in 2007 and the worst Russian military aircraft disaster since August 2002, when an enormous Mil Mi-26 transport helicopter packed with troops crashed into a minefield after being hit by a missile, killing 127 soldiers.
