Five U.S. Soldiers Die in Afghan Crash By PAUL HAVEN KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - Five U.S. soldiers were killed and seven injured when their helicopter crashed Sunday near the American military headquarters north of the Afghan capital, U.S. Central Command said. The soldiers were involved in an ongoing U.S. military operation, dubbed Mountain Resolve, taking place in the east of the country, the military said. ``A U.S. military helicopter crashed today near Bagram, Afghanistan,'' said a statement sent by e-mail from Central Command, in Tampa, Fla. ``Early reports indicate seven service members were injured and at least five service members were killed.'' It was not clear what caused the crash, and the military said it was investigating. Bagram Air Base, just north of the capital, is home to most of the 11,600 coalition forces in Afghanistan. An additional 5,000 international peacekeepers patrol Kabul. Also Sunday, a coalition vehicle struck a land mine while patrolling an area of Afghanistan near the Pakistani border, seriously wounding two American soldiers, including one who lost one of his legs. Three U.S. soldiers killed in Iraq Sunday, November 23, 2003 Posted: 7:48 PM EST (0048 GMT) Soldiers stand near the vehicle of two soldiers killed in an attack in Mosul on Sunday. BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) -- Three U.S. soldiers were killed Sunday in separate attacks on their military convoys in Iraq, according to the U.S. military. Two soldiers from the 101st Airborne Division were killed Sunday when their convoy came under attack by small-arms fire in the northern town of Mosul, according to a U.S. Army spokesman. After the deaths, witnesses told CNN the soldiers had their throats cut and were stripped of personal effects after they had been shot and wounded while riding in a civilian vehicle. But further investigation by CNN casts doubt on the allegations. CC
