KABUL, Afghanistan - Eight people were wounded and one killed after a rocket-propelled-grenade was fired at an International Security Assistance Force helicopter in Kunar province, Oct. 12.
The CH-47 Chinook helicopter had just landed and was off-loading through the rear ramp when an insurgent RPG was fired into the cargo bay. The explosion resulted in one Afghan interpreter killed, seven ISAF service members and one Afghan Border Police member wounded.
There were 26 people on the aircraft.
The landing site has been secured by Afghan and ISAF soldiers.
