KABUL — A U.S. Air Force F-15E Strike Eagle fighter jet crashed early Saturday in central Afghanistan, killing the two crew members, the U.S. military said.

Also Saturday, a suicide driver blew up his explosive-laden vehicle next to an Afghan army convoy in Zabul province, killing three soldiers and wounding three others, said Defense Ministry spokesman Mohammad Zahir Azimi.

A statement by the Air Force Central Command said the F-15 crash was not due to hostile fire, and a board of officers would be convened to determine the cause. Names of the crew members were not released. The Associated Press
