| KHOST, Afghanistan – A suicide attack Tuesday at a joint NATO-Afghan base in eastern Afghanistan killed two international service members and wounded several others, the military alliance said. The attack in remote Khost province near the Pakistan border was on a compound used by both international forces and the Afghan Border Police, NATO said. Residents in the province's Ali Shir district said they heard a large blast at the base after dark. A NATO statement later said that two international troops were killed and several others wounded. It gave no further details, but said an investigation was under way. |
