4 more US-led troops die in Afghanistan

Another four US-led troops killed in separate incidents in Afghanistan in the past 24 hours, according to Press TV. Two troops were killed in a roadside bomb blast in southern Afghanistan, while another died of non-combat injuries in the country's eastern region. The nationalities of the soldiers have not yet been revealed by the ISAF, but most of the international troops in eastern Afghanistan are part of the American military contingent deployed to the country. The deaths bring to 28 the number of US-led troops killed in the Asian nation this month. Insecurity continues to climb across Afghanistan despite the presence of nearly 130,000 US-led foreign troops in the country.
