    A military attack helicopter, identifiable as an AH-64 Apache, is on or near a gravel landing pad at what appears to be a forward operating base surrounded by sandbag barriers and supply containers. Its rotor blades are spinning, suggesting it is preparing for takeoff or has just landed. A second helicopter is visible in the distant sky above mountainous terrain under overcast conditions.
