Two Ugandan helicopters were discovered crashed on Mount Kenya Tuesday, two days after they disappeared, a Kenyan Army spokesman said. A third helicopter was found Monday after it crash-landed on the mountain, The New York Times reported. Fifteen people survived two of the crashes, an army spokesman Col. Cyrus Oguna said. The third helicopter was badly burned. Two bodies were found and five other people were missing and presumed dead. A fourth helicopter made a scheduled fuel stop in the Kenyan town of Garissa. The wreckage of the two missing helicopters was found by wildlife officers at 17,057 feet. All of the Russian-made aircraft were part of a contingent of troops sent to Somalia to reinforce African Union troops fighting the extremist Islamic group al-Shabaab.
