Extract

The joint ICRC and Indonesian Red Cross mission to provide assistance to needy persons in East Timor was plunged into mourning on Saturday, 2 April. A helicopter with five persons on board, including two Indonesian Red Cross collaborators, crashed in bad weather after colliding with a tree 10 km south of Dili, the capital. At the time of the accident the team was returning to its base at Dili after carrying out a mission of assistance in the south of the island of Timor.
