Afghanistan, July 6 (Press TV) Four soldiers under NATO command operating in Afghanistan have been killed in a bomb blast in northern part of the country.
No group has yet claimed responsibility for the blast on Monday.
The name and the nationality of the soldiers killed in the accident have not been disclosed by the military as of now.
The bombing came a few hours after a suicide car bomb exploded outside a NATO military base in southern Kandahar province, killing two Afghans.
The Taliban militia claimed responsibility for the suicide attack in southern Kandahar province and said its fighters had launched an "operation" to thwart the US push, now into its fifth day in the neighboring Helmand province.
