By Xinhua,
Kabul : A roadside bombing on Wednesday killed three soldiers with the U.S.-led Coalition forces and wounded another in western Afghanistan, said a Coalition statement received here on Thursday.
“The incident took place at about 8 p.m. local time (1530 GMT) when a Coalition vehicle struck an IED (improvised explosive device) killing three Coalition service members and wounding one in western Afghanistan,” the statement said.
It added that Coalition personnel secured the scene, and the incident was under investigation.
No groups or individuals have yet to claim responsibility while Taliban insurgents recently have vowed to intensified assaults against interests of Afghan government and international troops before the coming winter.
Spiraling conflicts and Taliban-linked insurgency have left more than 4,700 people with 142 U.S. soldiers so far this year in Afghanistan.
