"It was extremely saddening and I was shocked to hear about that," he said, speaking with ABC News Radio's Thomas Oriti. Michael Bociurkiw, a global affairs analyst and senior fellow at the Atlantic Council who is based in Odesa, told the ABC the interior ministry officials were on a work trip, and were often leaving and returning from base after visiting hot spots.A child and three others on the ground were killed after the helicopter, a French-manufactured Super Puma, slammed into a building in Bovary, a north-eastern suburb of the capital Kyiv.
