An American UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter crashed early Tuesday during a night training mission, killing all four crew members, the U.S. Army said.
The crash occurred about 1 a.m. near the military's Camp New Jersey some 50 kilometres northwest of Kuwait City, an Army statement said.
The aircraft, which belonged to the Army's V Corps, was part of the force that has been massed in this Gulf country for a possible invasion of Iraq.
The crew members were the only personnel on board, the Army said, according to AP. The Central Command is investigating the crash. (Albawaba.com)
