Two US troops and one American civilian are shot dead while Italian soldier dies in separate bomb attack on armoured convoy
Three Nato soldiers and a civilian have been killed in two separate attacks in Afghanistan.
Two US soldiers and an American civilian were killed in Paktika when a man in an Afghan army uniform turned his weapon on them, according to a spokeswoman for Afghanistan's Nato-led force. The attacker was killed in a shootout which also injured two US soldiers.
In western Afghanistan, an attacker threw explosives into an armoured vehicle, killing an Italian soldier and wounding three others.
The Italian defence ministry said the attack in Farah province came as the soldiers were returning to their base from training Afghan security forces.
The convoy of three armoured vehicles slowed down near a junction and an attacker ran up and threw an explosive device into the lead vehicle. The three wounded soldiers' injuries were not life-threatening, the ministry said.
The Taliban took responsibility for the attack, with a spokesman, Qari Yousef Ahmadi, claiming that the attacker was an 11-year-old boy.
The deaths on Saturday brought to 16 the number of international troops killed in Afghanistan this month. On Thursday, seven Georgian soldiers died in a lorry bombing at their base in the south.
Taliban insurgents have launched intense attacks across the country as Afghan forces take over most security responsibility before the majority of foreign troops withdraw next year.
