Chopper crash kills 10 Americans in Afghanistan
KABUL (AFP) - – Seven US soldiers and three US civilians were killed in a helicopter crash in western Afghanistan in the early hours of Monday, NATO said.
The helicopter crashed due to "unconfirmed reasons," NATO's International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said in a statement, adding: "The cause is not believed to be from enemy action."
"Seven US service members and three US civilians were killed," the ISAF statement said.
"Those injured include 14 Afghan service members, 11 US service members and one US civilian," it said.
An ISAF source earlier told AFP on condition of anonymity that the crash happened in Badghis province, an area where Taliban activity, much of it related to opium production, has been escalating in recent months.
