Seven US Marines have been killed in a collision between two helicopters in Arizona, officials say.
The mid-air accident happened near the city of Yuma during a training exercise, the US Marines said.
The accident happened on Wednesday night, and an investigation is under way into how it happened.
The Marines, flying in Cobra and Huey helicopters, were part of the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, based at Miramar in Southern California.
They collided in a remote portion of the Yuma Training Range Complex, the Marine Corps said.
Identities of the Marines would be withheld until their families have been notified, the Marines said.
