A British
soldier was killed in Afghanistan after his vehicle overturned on patrol,
reported dpa.
It was unclear whether the incident was an accident or an attack.
In recent weeks, two British soldiers were killed in the south of Afghanistan.
A total of 109 British soldiers have died since the beginning of the deployment
to overthrow the Islamic extremist Taliban seven years ago.
The British have around 7,800 soldiers stationed mainly in the dangerous southern
portion of the country.
Prime Minister Gordon Brown recently stated that the troop levels would be raised
to 8,030.
