NATO helicopter crashes in Afghanistan
None
A NATO service member was killed in an insurgent attack in eastern Afghanistan on Tuesday, and a helicopter crashed on a mission overnight, but no one was hurt, the international coalition said. No details about the fatal attack were released. The US-led coalition force does not identify the nationalities of casualties until individual countries name them.
The Chinook helicopter made a hard landing in the eastern province of Logar late Monday night, coalition spokeswoman Lt. j.g. Amy Hession said. The aircraft was heavily damaged, so the crew destroyed it before they were evacuated from the scene, she said. (AP)
