Two RAF personnel have been killed in a helicopter crash in Kabul, Afghanistan, the Ministry of Defence (MoD) has said.
A spokesman said an investigation was under way but confirmed it was "an accident and not the result of insurgent activity".
The Puma Mk2 helicopter crashed as it was landing at Nato's Resolute Support mission headquarters on Sunday.
The families of the victims have been informed and asked for a period of grace before their names are released.
