In its continuing investigation into the circumstances of Monday's helicopter crash in which Col. Tzvi Luft and Lt. Tom Farkash were killed, the IAF was considering on Tuesday the possibility that an Israeli missile from an MLRS artillery battery struck the craft. The investigators have virtually dispelled the option of a Hizbullah anti-aircraft missile downing the helicopter.
