Two US-led soldiers killed in Afghanistan

The Western military alliance, NATO, says two more US-led of soldiers have been killed in Afghanistan’s troubled south.
The alliance claimed the troops had died due to non-combat-related injuries sustained yesterday. This is while most US-led soldier casualties are combat-related.
The alliance has not released further details regarding the incident.
The recent deaths put the total of NATO soldiers killed in Afghanistan since the beginning of 2012 at 15.
Last year was the second deadliest year for the alliance in Afghanistan since the US-led invasion of the country in 2001.
The increasing number of military casualties in Afghanistan has caused widespread anger in the US and other NATO member states, undermining public support for the Afghan war.
The US-led invasion of Afghanistan took place in 2001 under the pretext of combating terrorism, toppling the Taliban regime, and establishing security in the country.
However, insecurity continues to rise across Afghanistan despite the presence of thousands of foreign forces in the country.
The war in Afghanistan has become the longest military conflict in US history.
