A CH-148 Cyclone helicopter crashed into the Ionian Sea on April 29. Six Canadians were on board: four Royal Canadian Air Force members and two Royal Canadian Navy members.

On Thursday, it was announced that Nova Scotia Sub-Lt. Abbigail Cowbrough, a maritime systems engineering officer originally from Toronto, is confirmed dead. The search for the remaining five members continues in the international waters between Greece and Italy.

The helicopter crashed during a NATO task force mission, as part of Operation Reassurance. The six-member team was on six month deploy that began in January.

There is aircraft from Canada, Italy and Turkey currently looking for the downed craft and the team members, with support from Greece and the U.S.
