A US helicopter has crashed north of Baghdad, with witnesses quoted by the Reuters news agency saying it was shot down by rocket. The fate of the helicopter's two-man crew is unclear, the US military said.

The military said it was investigating the incident, which took place at 0820 (0520 GMT).

A US reconnaissance helicopter crashed on Friday near the northern Iraqi city of Mosul, killing both its crew, in an apparent attack by insurgents.


More signs of progress I guess.
