Eight U.S. troops and four American civilians died aboard a U.S. Army Black Hawk helicopter that crashed in northern Iraq, the military said Monday. Two attacks on Iraq's Interior Ministry killed seven people.

The helicopter, which crashed just before midnight Saturday, was found on Sunday. The military initially said only that there were eight passengers and four crew aboard, all believed to be American. The military on Monday specified that four passengers were civilians.

The military said it wasn't yet known what caused the crash and that the investigation would take some time.

The helicopter went down about seven miles east of Tal Afar, a northern city near the Syrian border that has seen heavy fighting with insurgents.

The Black Hawk was part of a two-helicopter team providing support for the 101st Airborne Division and was flying between bases when communications were lost, the military said.

It was the deadliest helicopter crash in Iraq since a CH-53 Sea Stallion went down in bad weather in western Iraq on Jan. 26, 2005, killing 31 U.S. service members.
