US helicopter crash in western Iraq causes fatalities: Official - ABC News
An American HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopter has crashed in western Iraq on Thursday and at least some aboard were killed, according to a U.S. official.
The official said the aircraft went down near al Qaim in western Anbar Province.
A separate official told ABC News there were seven people on board the helicopter. All were U.S. Air Force airmen, ABC News confirmed.
There was no sign of hostile fire, that official said, but it is not being ruled out at this time.
It's believed to be the first fatal helicopter crash in Iraq since the U.S. began fighting ISIS there in 2014.

Political turmoil in Kuwait as emir dissolves parliament
“The unhealthy atmosphere experienced by Kuwait in previous years has encouraged the spread of corruption to reach most state facilities, and unfortunately it reached the security and economic institutions,” the 83-year-old ruler said, adding that “it has even affected the justice system”.
“We have faced difficulties and obstacles that cannot be tolerated,” he said.
