ISIS shoots down Iraqi helicopter

Iraqi officials say ISIS militants have shot down a military helicopter near Samarra, killing the two pilots onboard.

 

A senior official at the Iraqi Defense Ministry says the Sunni militants used a shoulder-fired rocket launcher to shoot down the helicopter on the outskirts of the Shiite holy city. An army official corroborated the information. Both spoke on condition of anonymity as they weren't authorized to speak to journalists.
