7 Sinai Peacekeepers Killed in Helicopter Crash
(VOA News) Seven peacekeepers from the Multinational Force and Observers, including five Americans, were killed Thursday when a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter crashed during a routine mission in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula. The two additional victims were French and Czech. An eighth crew member, an American, was badly injured and airlifted to an Israeli hospital. The MFO monitors the 1979 Israeli-Egyptian peace accord. The crash appears to have been an accident and there were no signs of the aircraft being attacked.
