Two US Army Black Hawk helicopters crashed during a training mission over Kentucky, the US military has said.
The status of the crew members involved in the incident on Wednesday night was not immediately known, Nondice Thurman, an Army spokeswoman said.
In a statement early on Thursday, she did not detail the number of people who were on board.
Andy Beshear, the governor of Kentucky, said in a post on Twitter that fatalities were expected and the Kentucky State Police and the state’s Division of Emergency Management were responding to the accident.
Crew members were flying two Black Hawk helicopters that crashed at around 10.00pm local time in Kentucky’s Trigg County, Ms Thurman said.
The cause of the crash is under investigation.
“The command is currently focused on caring for the service members and their families,” she said.
