Authorities have launched an investigation into what caused the Boeing MV-22B Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft to crash on Melville Island, north of Darwin.
Eight US marines were in hospital - one of them in intensive care - following a military aircraft crash in northern Australia that killed three of their comrades, authorities said.
Authorities have launched an investigation into what caused the crash, and efforts are also underway to recover the remains of the three dead marines. Air traffic control broadcasts from Darwin airport after the incident included communications from the site describing dark smoke and a"significant fire", but Murphy said he could not comment on why the Osprey had crashed."Predators Run" -- the exercise the Marines had been participating in -- was paused on Sunday, but an Australian defence official told AFP that it had resumed on Monday morning.
