10 NATO SOLDIERS KILLED IN A SINGLE DAY IN AFGHANISTAN
KABUL (AFP) – Ten NATO soldiers including at least one American were killed in a string of attacks in Afghanistan on Monday, one of the heaviest tolls suffered by the alliance in a single day.
http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20100607/wl_sthasia_afp/afghanistanunrest_20100607185734
Of the total toll, confirmed to AFP by an alliance spokesman, five soldiers were killed by an improvised explosive device (IED) in eastern Afghanistan, one as a result of gunfire also in the east and another by an IED in the south.
Earlier in the day the alliance announced the deaths of two other soldiers in a bomb attack and of one American soldier in a shooting.
Separately, two foreign contractors, one of them an American, were killed Monday in a suicide attack on an Afghan police training centre in the southern city of Kandahar, the US embassy said.
The Afghanistan war has been going on for 104 months which makes it longer than the Vietnam War.
