(Landstuhl, Germany-AP) -- Five more U-S soldiers injured in Sunday's helicopter shoot-down in Iraq have been brought to a military hospital in Germany.

The U-S military says three of the soldiers have serious injuries and were placed in the intensive care unit of Landstuhl Regional Medical Center. Their conditions were stabilized, and they're being flown to Walter Reed Army Medical Center in Washington.

The new arrivals follow 16 soldiers who were brought to the hospital following the crash of the Chinook helicopter in the Fallujah (fuh-LOO'-juh) area.

Sixteen others were killed.
