glojo, "technical issues" is an obvious deliberately bland catch-all term.
Such technical issues could include e.g. a high density altitude inability to maintain a heavyweight hover, leading to descent into an obstacle, such as a compund wall.
Which is what US statements a few hours later say happened.
There's no inconsistency or 'silliness' that I can see. What am I missing?
