| 1 US soldier killed, 2 wounded in ‘apparent insider attack’ in Afghanistan – NATO | |
| (35 minutes later) | |
| At least one US serviceman was killed and two others were wounded in southern Afghanistan, NATO said in a statement, describing the incident as an “apparent insider attack.” | |
| The two injured servicemen remain in "stable" condition and are receiving the treatment needed, according to a statement issued by the coalition on Saturday. The incident is under investigation, and no further information on the victims and possible suspects has been released so far.The serviceman, killed on Saturday, has become the third US soldier to have perished in Afghanistan this year. Two other soldiers were killed in January and April, and several more have been injured during “combat operations” alongside local troops. | |
| It’s been over a year since the last “insider attack” in Afghanistan on US troops, who were plagued by such occurrences in 2017. Last June, three soldiers were killed and 11 were wounded in two separate incidents when Afghan soldiers turned their weapons on them. The circumstances of Saturday’s “insider attack” still remain unclear and it remains a mystery who the perpetrator of the incident was. | |
