Three troops from the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) have been killed by a roadside bomb in eastern Afghanistan, officials said Wednesday.
ISAF did not say which country the dead troops were from or give further details of the incident, which happened Tuesday, in line with policy.
There are around 130,000 international troops in Afghanistan fighting a Taliban-led insurgency. About 90,000 of them are from the United States.
“Three International Security Assistance Force service members died following an improvised explosive device attack in eastern Afghanistan yesterday,” the statement said.
