Global News has learned the military is in communications lockdown following reports that the helicopter on HMCS Fredericton has gone missing Canadian military helicopter crashes off the coast of Greece: reports - National | Globalnews.ca globalnews.ca/news/6883989/n… #CAF
The reports right now are in the Greek media saying there has been a crash. I am told there will be a statement from the Canadian Armed Forces coming shortly. HMCS Fredericton has been deployed on Op Reassurance as part of a NATO deterrence mission. She deployed in January.
NATO has confirmed that there has been an incident involving a helicopter from a ship under NATO command to Global News, but did not identify the member military operating the helicopter.

NATO says a search and rescue mission is underway.
The ship is based out of Halifax. My heart breaks for the people of Nova Scotia. I desperately hope they find the crew alive and well.
