National Fire Service AB206 crash in Central Italy

An Agusta-built B206 crashed yesterday while landing on a plateau near the Gran Sasso massif in Central Italy.

Among the crew of three, two crewmembers got minor injuries.

Could it be another case of LTE/LTA? To my untrained eye, the direction of the dust after the crash would suggest that the approach was being carried out with some tailwind.
