Two U.S. service members killed in Afghanistan

Two U.S. service members were killed in Afghanistan on Monday, the NATO-led Resolute Support mission said in a statement, as the United States seeks to reach a negotiated end to the nearly 18-year-old war, APA reports quoting Reuters.

It gave no further details and withheld the names of the service members until next of kin were informed.

The incident brings the number of U.S. troops killed in Afghanistan this month to three and at least 11 in 2019.

A U.S. official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, said that according to initial information it was a “green-on-blue” attack.
