SKorean army helicopter crashes near mountain, killing 7
A South Korean army helicopter crashed near a mountain early Wednesday, killing seven people on board, a Defense Ministry official said.
The UH-1H went down in Gyeonggi province near Seoul around 1:40 a.m., the official said on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak with the media.
Two pilots, two medical officers and three soldiers died when the aircraft crash as it returned to base after transporting an emergency patient to a military hospital, the official said.
An investigation was under way to determine the cause of the crash.
