An American soldier was killed in a non-combat incident in Iraq, the Pentagon said, less than a week after a US Navy Seal died in fighting near the Islamic State’s stronghold of Mosul.


The US Department of Defense said Sunday that 1st Lt. David Bauders, 25, died on Friday at the Al Asad Air Base in western Iraq's Anbar Province. He was part of the Washington National Guard's 176th Engineer Company.


The Pentagon said that the circumstances of Bauders' death remain unclear and are under investigation.
