There are reports a Canadian NATO helicopter has crashed off the coast of Greece. The Associated Press wire service has published a report saying that a military helicopter operating off of a Canadian frigate went missing while taking part in a NATO operation in the Mediterranean.
Global News has learned Canadian military leaders are in high level meetings trying to figure out what happened, following an initial lockdown on communication with media as the early reports emerged.
A Twitter account run by the Canadian Forces said it had lost contact with a CH-148 Cyclone helicopter that had been deployed on the HMCS Frederiction for Operation Reassurance.
