#1 Linked to the second page by mistake. Well worth going back to page 1 and reading whole thread.

From one post,

as a friend of mine who was having a fag on the roof of his house said , there were three or more helis none looked like normal pak ones , one crashed or either entered a fire ball and then disappeared .,the other two hovered around for a minute or so and then went toward mansehra and as he was seeing the helis flying toward mansehra he was knocked out but a massive blast .

Sounds to me like it was hit by a missile.

#2 Is it just me, or did this page disappear. I read the forum earlier, but now the site seems to be blocked.

#6 This is why we post the relevant snippets in the article summary instead of just a link to who knows where.
