A helicopter crash in Qatar’s territorial waters has killed six people, with one individual still missing, according to officials. The aircraft reportedly went down due to a technical malfunction during routine operations, the defence ministry said. Search and rescue teams continue efforts to locate the missing person. The incident comes amid intensifying tensions in the ongoing Israel–Iran conflict, now entering a dangerous phase with missile strikes, military alerts, and global energy concerns. While authorities have not confirmed whether the victims were military or civilian, the crash highlights rising risks in the region as military activity increases. (PC: NDTV)
