Rescuers in central Kenya are continuing efforts to reach two Ugandan military helicopters that crashed on Mount Kenya.

Kenyan military officials said Tuesday the wreckage has been spotted by air, but that the fate of the crew on board the helicopters is not known.

On Monday, rescuers found a third helicopter that made an emergency landing on Mount Kenya with seven people on board.

Officials say investigators suspect bad weather caused the accidents.

The Ugandan helicopters were on their way to Somalia to join African Union peacekeepers fighting al-Shabab militants.

A fourth helicopter traveling with the group landed safely in northeastern Kenya.
