Two NATO Soldiers Killed In Afghanistan

Two NATO soldiers were killed in two separate incidents in southern Afghanistan on Monday, said a statement released by the alliance fighting Taliban insurgency in Afghanistan.

"One soldier was killed by enemy hostile action and another was killed in an improvised explosive device blast while supporting an Afghan National Police operation," the statement said.

The NATO statement, however, did not disclose the identities of the two soldiers killed or the location where the incidents leading to their deaths took place.

Also on Monday, four Afghan soldiers and a civilian translator, working with the US-led coalition, were injured in a suicide bombing in Paktika province in eastern Afghanistan, said officials.
