A US military Apache attack helicopter has crashed near the strategically important Strait of Hormuz in the Middle East. However, US President Donald Trump has confirmed that the pilots on board the helicopter are completely safe and \u2018fine\u2019 in the accident.
\nHe made this information while talking to reporters at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York. President Trump faced reporters at the airport after enjoying the NBA finals match in New York on Monday night (June 8), US local time.
\nThe influential US media outlet The New York Times was the first to publish this news. According to their report, a US military Apache attack helicopter has crashed near the Strait of Hormuz, but the exact circumstances of the accident are still unclear.
\nJust hours before the incident, Israel and Iran launched fierce attacks on each other on Monday. The retaliatory attacks by the two countries have suspended a fragile ceasefire in the Iran-Iraq war. The news of the US military helicopter crash came amid such a heated situation. However, the New York Times report did not provide any specific information on whether the Apache helicopter was shot down by an Iranian attack, crashed due to mechanical failure, or encountered some other problem.
\nMeanwhile, the White House, the US State Department, and the US Central Command (CENTCOM) were contacted about this sensitive incident, but no official comment or response was immediately received from them. On the other hand, President Trump said that despite this new conflict between Israel and Iran, US negotiations with Iran are still ‘ongoing’.<\/p>\n
