BAGHDAD, Iraq (CNN) — Four American troops and one Iraqi
army interpreter have been killed and three American troops are missing
after an attack on Saturday morning 12 miles west of Mahmoudiya — a
city south of the capital in Babil province, the U.S. military said.

The coalition team of seven Americans and the Iraqi interpreter was attacked before dawn, the military said.

A
nearby unit heard explosions, and 15 minutes later, a drone aircraft
spotted two burning vehicles, according to a U.S. military statement.

“Coalition
Forces are currently using every means at our disposal to find the
missing Soldiers, and we will continue these efforts until all are
accounted for,” the statement said.
