TemaraA pilot belonging to the Royal Gendarmerie was killed, on Thursday evening, after a plane dedicated to extinguishing forest fires crashed during an air intervention to combat a fire in the Maamoura forest, in the territory of the city of Temara, while the competent authorities began an investigation to determine the causes and circumstances of the accident.
According to available data, the accident occurred while the plane was carrying out a field mission to put out fires, before it fell into a forest field, resulting in the death of its pilot on the spot as a result of the injuries he sustained.
The incident mobilized various local authorities, civil prevention personnel, and security services, who moved to the accident site to cordon off and secure the area, coinciding with the launch of technical and judicial inspection operations to uncover the circumstances that led to the plane falling.
According to preliminary data, the pilot tried to direct the plane away from nearby residential areas after it suffered, according to preliminary estimates, a technical malfunction, as it was seen performing several maneuvers before it crashed inside the forest, but this data has not yet been confirmed by official authorities.
Video clips were also circulated on social media documenting the last moments of the plane before it fell, but the authenticity of these recordings or the stories associated with them has not been independently verified.
This incident comes at a time when the Kingdom continues to mobilize its air and ground capabilities to confront forest fires during the summer season, by strengthening rapid interventions to protect forest cover and property, tasks that are accomplished in complex field conditions.
So far, no official communication has been issued revealing the direct causes of the accident, while investigations and technical expertise are continuing to determine all the circumstances related to this incident.
