The US military has named all six crew members who were killed when their refuelling aircraft crashed in Iraq.
The Pentagon said those on board the KC-135 plane were: John Klinner, 33, from Alabama, 31-year-old Ariana Savino from Washington, Ashley Pruitt, 34, from Kentucky, 38-year-old Seth Koval from Indiana, and Ohio natives Curtis Angst, 30, and Tyler Simmons, 28.
The first three were US Air Force personnel, and the latter three served in the National Guard.
The US military previously said neither hostile nor friendly fire were involved in the loss of the plane, which had been involved in US operations against Iran.
The aircraft had been on a combat mission when it went down over western Iraq and was one of two planes involved in the incident. The second landed safely.
US Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth hailed the aircraft’s crew members as “American heroes”.
