Drone vs Helicopter at the LidBeer music festival in Lida, BelarusDrone vs Helicopter at the LidBeer music festival in Lida, Belarus

On the 8th December in Lida, Belarus, the fourth LidBeer Music Festival took place, but during that event it has been reported that a helicopter almost collided with a drone being flown in the area, but is the respective video footage real, or fake?

The Mil Mi-2 (NATO reporting name Hoplite) helicopter with registration ‘EW-354AO’ was present at the event and flying visitors around on experience trips, there was also a drone operator flying what we believe to be a DJI Mavic Air above the crowds when the two suddenly faced a head-on impact.
