Four U.S. service members killed when aircraft crashes in Norway during NATO exercise

Four American service members were killed on Friday night when a U.S. military aircraft crashed in Norway while taking part in a NATO exercise, the Norwegian prime minister said.

“The soldiers participated in the NATO exercise Cold Response. Our deepest sympathies go to the soldiers’ families, relatives and fellow soldiers in their unit,” Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store said Saturday morning.

The U.S. Marine Corps aircraft was reported missing Friday while participating in a NATO military exercise, the Norwegian military said earlier.

The U.S. 2nd Marine Expeditionary Force, in a statement, did not specify how many people were in the MV-22B Osprey, which is capable of vertical takeoffs and landings and is primarily used to transport troops and equipment in support of amphibious assaults.
