What Happened?

Any ideas, seat belts would have been a good idea? On the 9th of July 2018, a helicopter crashed at the South Inylchek Glacier base camp in Kyrgyzstan during the landing procedure. On board were mostly tourists and kyrgyz military personel, among which were 2 germans, 4 polish and 4 japanese citizens. Miraculously, no one was killed in the crash, but four of the injured passangers had to be immediatelly flown to hospital, some with life threatening injuries. It's still unclear what caused the helicopter to lose control, but experts believe that it was the result of human error.
