Bombs killed four Nato troops Monday two Americans and two Britons ending the deadliest month of the war for US forces as the top Nato commander called for a new strategy to confront the Taliban. The US military said the two Americans were killed in separate explosions in southern Afghanistan but gave no further details.
Their deaths brought to 47 the number of US troops who have died in the Afghan war in August three more than in July which had been the deadliest month. In London, the British Ministry of Defence said the two British soldiers were killed by a bomb on a foot patrol north of Lashkar Gah, a southern Afghan city where Prime Minister Gordon Brown paid a surprise visit last weekend and promised help for his embattled force.
