U.S. military has announced the deaths of two of its soldiers in Afghanistan amid a surge in Taliban attacks against foreign forces in the country.

A statement by the US military said on Sunday that six other Americans were wounded in the eastern province of Kunar. It says an Afghan soldier was also killed in the incident.

Meanwhile, a Taliban spokesman has confirmed the attack and said they have inflicted heavy losses on the American and Afghan forces. The fatalities also push the number of foreign troops killed so far this month to 92. June has been the deadliest month for foreign troops since the US-led invasion of Afghanistan began in 2001.

The latest deaths bring the number of NATO troops killed in Afghanistan so far this year to 312.
