Three US soldiers have been killed in Afghanistan after a bomb struck a US patrol in the Panjawi district of the country's southern province of Kandahar, Press TV reports.
The US soldiers were on patrol when the blast occurred on Thursday.
The southern regions of Afghanistan, including Kandahar, are among the most dangerous parts of the war-ravaged country for the US-led foreign troops.
Insecurity continues to climb across Afghanistan despite the continued presence of nearly 130,000 US-led forces in the Asian country.
According to the icasualties.org website, at least 130 US-led troops have been killed in Afghanistan so far this year.
The rising number of military casualties in Afghanistan has caused widespread anger in the US and other members of the Western military alliance of NATO, undermining public support for the US-led war.
