BAGHDAD, Oct. 16 -- Two U.S. military transport helicopters crashed Saturday night in southwestern Baghdad, the military said, killing two soldiers and bringing to six the number of American servicemen reported killed in violence across Iraq over the past two days.

Also in the capital, a series of bombings before dawn damaged five churches, and a mortar round or rocket struck a hospital, killing one Iraqi and wounding five.
