NATO Soldier Killed In Afghanistan
(RTTNews) - A NATO soldier was killed in a militant attack in southern Afghanistan on Wednesday, the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said.
An ISAF statement did not disclose the nationality of the deceased, as it deferred casualty identification procedures to the relevant national authorities.
It also did not specify where the attack occurred.
Mainly, U.S., British, Canadian, and Australian Marines are deployed to the dangerous southern provinces of the country.
ISAF conducted dozens of operations to arrest suspected Taliban militants in southern Afghanistan over recent months.
With this, the number of foreign troops killed in Afghanistan so far this year crossed 400.
