Thirteen US troops were killed in violence across Iraq over the

weekend, the US military has said.

Four troops were killed when the helicopter they were travelling

in crashed in Anbar province. About 150 Iraqis also died in the past two

days.

Almost 2,900 US troops have now died

in Iraq since the 2003 invasion.

The news came as US President George W Bush prepared to meet

influential Iraqi Shia leader Abdel Aziz al-Hakim at the White House.

Four US troops died on Sunday

when a marine helicopter carrying 16 people made an emergency landing on a

lake near Haditha in Anbar province, the US military said.

 

" The incident does not appear to be a result of enemy

action and is currently under investigation, " the military said.

The US military said one

soldier died in Baghdad and two north of the

capital on Sunday.

On Saturday, one was killed north of Baghdad and five in

Anbar.

On Sunday, the military also declared killed in action the pilot

of an F-16 fighter that crashed in Anbar last Monday.
