An explosion in the eastern Afghan province of Ghazni killed two soldiers from the Nato-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and one civilian interpreter, ISAF said in a statement on Wednesday.
Taliban militants regularly use roadside bombs to target foreign and Afghan soldiers in a bid to topple the US-backed government and force withdrawal of the nearly 60,000 foreign troops stationed in the country.
Tuesday's incident happened while the soldiers were on patrol. The civilian who died was working for the soldiers as an interpreter. Another soldier was also wounded. ISAF does not release the nationality of the dead and wounded soldiers but most of the soldiers stationed in Ghazni are American and Polish.
