KABUL, March 16 (Xinhua) -- Twelve soldiers with the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) lost their lives as a chopper crashed in Kabul on Friday, the alliance confirmed in a statement released here.
"Twelve International Security Assistance Force service members died following a helicopter crash in Kabul province today," the statement added.
The cause of the crash is under investigation, however initial reporting indicates there was no enemy activity in the area at the time of the crash, the statement stressed.
However, it did not identify the nationalities of the victims, saying it is ISAF policy to defer casualty identification procedures to the relevant national authorities.

An eye witness namely Tamim at the site of the incident said the helicopter first hit a residential house in Bagrami district and then caught fire leaving several people dead and injured.
More than 1,700 Turkish forces have been stationed in Afghanistan within the framework of NATO-led ISAF to help stabilize security in the conflict-ridden country.
