On November 12, six American service members, as well as one French and one Czech, were killed when a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter that was carrying them crashed on Tiran Island off the coast of Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula.

The service members were part of the UN’s Multinational Force and Observers (MFO). The force was formed in 1979 to oversee the terms of the peace treaty between Egypt and Israel.

According to several media sources, one American service member survived crash and was medically evacuated from the accident scene.

“The Defense Department is deeply saddened by the loss of six U.S. and two partner nation service members in a helicopter crash in the Sinai Peninsula operating with the United Nations Multinational Force and Observers,” the U.S. Acting Secretary of Defense Chris Miller said in a statement “I extend the Department’s condolences to the families, friends and teammates of these service members.”

An unnamed U.S. official told Fox News that mechanical failure is suspected as the cause of the crash. An investigation into the accident is currently underway.

This was the deadliest incident for the U.S. military this year. So far this year, only four American service members have been killed in Afghanistan.

Danes are even considered racist Nazis by other Europeans.

Belgium has expelled five Danish far-right Nazi activists and banned them for a year over their plans to burn a Koran in a mainly-Muslim area of Brussels. Previously, the UK also deported 4 Danish skin heads for distributing racist anti-immigrant material. Denmark with a largely racist population and lower educational standards is now considered a threat to domestic harmony by many EU nations.

It nevewr has been a part of the Russian Neocolonialisme before 1945. It was Austra-Hungaria. It hardly ever has had a single Russian inhabitant as well.

No they make sure someone pays a heavy price,usually someone who had nothing to do with it.

cechas vodobenikov

by stealing their oil, heroin and cocaine–otherwise obese US soldiers hide in fortresses, insecure dreading death

Dick Von Dast'Ard

Quite a lot of U.S. servicemen lost lives this last couple of weeks.

Frank

They are mere poor cannon fodder from the trailer parks and their lives do not matter to Wall Street. 250,000 old and poor Black and Hispanics have died from the virus and no one cares.

perhaps the amerikans can buy some Ukrainian drones instead, or is this a population control device?

Tommy Jensen

Eight innocent Americans from the free and civilised world plus Allies were killed on a peace mission in a shithole country. Not because they didnt fulfill their mission but because some motherfokkers had forgot to clean the engine for sand. You have to do everything yourself. Unfortunately thats the way it is.
