Vietnam Helicopter Crash Kills 7 U.S., 9 Vietnamese

By David Brunnstrom

HANOI (Reuters) - Sixteen people, including seven U.S. searchers for Vietnam War missing, were killed when a Russian-made helicopter crashed into a mountain in central Vietnam on Saturday, a U.S. embassy spokesman said.

``The embassy has been informed by Vietnamese authorities that a helicopter went down in Quang Binh province this afternoon with seven Americans and nine Vietnamese aboard, including crew,'' the spokesman said.

The Hawaii-based U.S. Pacific Command, citing Vietnamese officials, said: ``Reportedly there are no survivors.'' It identified the helicopter as a Russian-made Mi-17.

The Defense Department confirmed that seven U.S. military personnel and nine Vietnamese were killed in the crash.
