Two US Soldiers Killed In Taliban Attack

Written By Unknown on Minggu, 14 Desember 2014 | 00.57

Two US soldiers were killed by Taliban forces in Afghanistan on Friday, an American military official said.

They died during a bomb attack on a Nato convoy near America's Bagram Airfield base in the east of the country.

Meanwhile, at least six Afghan troops were killed after a suicide bomber destroyed a bus in the capital Kabul on Saturday.

A senior court official was also assassinated and 12 Afghan workers were gunned down in the south.

Taliban fighters claimed responsibility for all the attacks and vowed more bloodshed ahead of the official end of Nato's combat mission on December 31.

It has wrecked claims the insurgency is weakening and highlighted fears Afghanistan could descend into a spiral of violence as the US-led military presence declines.

Nato's force will change at the end of the month from a combat mission to a support role, with troop numbers cut to about 12,500 - down from a peak of 130,000 in 2010.

Earlier on Saturday, Taliban gunmen shot dead a senior Supreme Court official as he left his home in the capital.

Taliban fighters also killed 12 workers clearing mines in southern Helmand province.

Afghan troops fought with the attackers, killing two insurgents and capturing four others.

In his weekly presidential address, Barack Obama thanked American forces for their work in Afghanistan.

"Since our nation was attacked on 9/11, these men and women, like so many others in uniform, have met every mission we've asked of them," he said.

"In more than a decade of war, this 9/11 Generation has worked with the Afghan people to help them reclaim their communities and prevent terrorist attacks against our own country."
