A NATO helicopter crashed in the restive east of Afghanistan
A NATO helicopter crashed in the restive east of Afghanistan on Monday, the coalition force said.
NATO's International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said the crew and passengers received only minor injuries in the incident. A police official said the helicopter appeared to have been downed by a rocket-propelled grenade.
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the crash, saying that two militants had died but that their forces killed 22 foreign occupation troops.
