5 US troops die in helicopter crash in Afghanistan

None

A helicopter crash in southern Afghanistan has killed five American service members, officials said Tuesday.

 

Monday night's crash brought the total number of US troops killed that day to seven, making it the deadliest day for US forces so far this year. Two US special operations forces were gunned down hours earlier in an insider attack by an Afghan policeman in eastern Afghanistan. (AP)
