US, ISAF soldiers killed in Afghanistan
Military and Security    11/8/2009 5:01:00 PM
 
KABUL, Nov 8 (KUNA) -- An International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) soldier and a US soldier were killed in western Afghanistan, while the foreign troops claimed killing "several" Taliban in the volatile southern zone of the country.
An ISAF spokesperson said one US soldier was killed in a militant attack in western Afghanistan. This is the same zone where two US soldiers had gone missing three days ago.
However, the spokesperson clarified the killing of this soldier was not related to the search for the missing soldiers.
The second soldier, who was from the NATO-led ISAF troops, was killed in a roadside bomb blast in southern Afghanistan. His name and nationality were not made public.
The international troops also claimed killing "several" militants in Kandahar province, the former stronghold of Taliban in the Pashtun-dominated southern zone of the country.
The statement did not mention the exact number, but said some militants were killed and a group of suspected militants were arrested on charges of supporting the Taliban suicide bombing and roadside attacks on foreign and Afghan soldiers as well as civilians. (end) gk.hb KUNA 081701 Nov 09NNNN
