A suicide bomber riding on an explosive-laden motorbike killed two Afghan soldiers and wounded two others in a southern province Tuesday, a Defence Ministry spokesman said, DPA reported.
The attacker targeted joint forces patrolling in Sangin district on Tuesday afternoon, Zahir Azimi said.
"Two Afghan national army soldiers were martyred and two others were wounded," he said, adding that there were also "casualties among the foreign forces," but did not provide more details.
More than 9,000 British soldiers and hundreds of US Marines are deployed to the province as part of more than 110,000 NATO-led international troops currently stationed in the war-torn country.
NATO military spokesmen were not immediately available for comment.
