The coalition’s International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said one of the soldiers was killed in a “direct fire attack by enemy forces” in southern Afghanistan, but did not provide further details.

Another soldier died in a similar attack in eastern Afghanistan.

ISAF tends not to release the nationality of casualties before their own country makes an announcement.
