The inhabitants of Bardonnex and Composières see the tranquility of their region disturbed by the sound of the rotors of a helicopter this Tuesday.
L’Eurocopter EC135 of the Swiss army moves throughout the left bank. He made several round trips between Collonge-Bellerive and the southern border of the canton, where he particularly linger.
“The apparatus is participating in a joint army-political exercise,” said Henny Martinoni, spokesperson for the cantonal police. “The army must train its pilots for its coordination in the event of collaboration with the police,” he adds.
Aerial monitoring sites make it possible to observe the movements of the helicopter in real time.

The current exercise, in which other cantons participate, will continue until Wednesday. Helicopter flights should remain focused on the same areas.
