US helicopter crashes in Iraq
A US helicopter crashed north of Baghdad Monday, the US military said, adding that there was no immediate news of its two-man crew.
"A task force Ironside helicopter did go down this morning at 8:20 am, a spokesman said. "The status of the two-man crew is unknown at the moment."
The cause of the accident, a few miles (kilometres) north of the capital, is under investigation, he added.
Two US pilots were killed on Friday when their reconnaissance helicopter was apparently shot down in northern Iraq, while eight US soldiers and four civilians perished a week earlier when their Black Hawk helicopter crashed near the restive town of Tal Afar in northwestern Iraq.
