The United States Central Command has confirmed that all six crew members aboard a KC-135 refueling aircraft were killed when the plane crashed in western Iraq. The confirmation came after earlier reports indicated that four crew members had died and two were missing. The update clarified that all six personnel on board lost their lives in the incident.
According to a post by CENTCOM on social media platform X, the cause of the crash remains under investigation. However, preliminary findings suggest that the aircraft was not brought down by hostile action or friendly fire. Authorities stated that the identities of the deceased crew members will be released 24 hours after their families have been notified.
The crash adds to ongoing operational challenges for US forces in the region, though officials have not linked the incident to any external threat pending the outcome of the investigation.
