At least two US soldiers were wounded in an explosion in eastern Nangarhar province of Afghanistan today, Khaama Press quoted the US Forces in Afghanistan (USFOR-A) as saying on Saturday.
The incident took place after a vehicle of the US forces struck an Improvised Explosive Device (IED) planted by the militants.
“2 US troops were injured in Nangarhar today after their vehicle hit an IED. No other casualties resulted,” USFOR-A and the NATO-led Resolute Support (RS) mission said.
No further details were given regarding the identities of the soldiers who sustained injuries in the attack.
The US forces in Afghanistan and the NATO-led Resolute Support (RS) mission generally do not disclose identities of the coalition forces casualties in Afghanistan, saying the relevant authorities will disclose additional information regarding the casualties.
This comes as a US soldier lost his life in a similar attack in eastern Nangarhar province of Afghanistan last week.
