NATO-ISAF spokesman Maj. Adam Wojack told Stars and Stripes the helicopter that crashed was a two-seater, but would not give any information as to the model of the downed aircraft.

Stars and Stripes reports the Taliban is claiming responsibility for shooting down the helicopter. But take that with a grain of salt, because they also say everyone on board was killed.
