From the Wikipedia article
At 11:45 on 8 November 2020, two Hélicoptères Guimbal Guimbal Cabri G2 helicopters collided over Taman Melawati, Ampang, Gombak District, Selangor, Malaysia, killing two and injuring two. Both helicopters belonged to the same club and collided while conducting flight training, causing one of the helicopters to crash, killing the two people on board on the spot. The dead were later confirmed as Mohamed Sabri Baharom (Mohamed Sabri Baharom) and Mohd Irfan Mohamed Rawi (Mohd Irfan Mohamed Rawi). The other helicopter successfully made a forced landing on the playing field of a nearby school, and those on board, former Malaysia Airlines chief executive officer Ahmad Jauhari and Tan Chai Eian (Tan Chai Eian, transliteration), suffered only minor injuries. Malaysia's Ministry of Transport and the police have both launched investigations.
