US Army Apache helicopter crashes near Hormuz Strait

A U.S. Army Apache attack helicopter has crashed near the Strait of Hormuz.

Axar.az reports, citing Reuters, U.S. President Donald Trump said early on Tuesday that ​the pilots of a U.S. Army ‌Apache helicopter that went down near the Strait of Hormuz "are fine."

Speaking on the runway ​at John F. Kennedy International ​Airport before returning to Washington, D.C., Trump ⁠said there was "nobody injured."

The administration ​would issue a report later on Tuesday, ​he added.

The New York Times reported late on Monday that a U.S. Army Apache helicopter ​gunship went down near the Strait ​of Hormuz on Monday and its two crew ‌members ⁠were safely rescued, citing two people briefed on the incident.

It was not immediately clear whether the Apache was shot ​down by ​Iranian ⁠fire, experienced mechanical failure or encountered some other problem, the ​report said.
