5 US-led soldiers killed in Afghan war

At least five US-led soldiers with NATO’s International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) have been killed across Afghanistan over the past 24 hours, the military coalition says.
According to an ISAF statement, a bomb attack killed three in eastern Afghanistan on Wednesday, DPA reported.
Another two were killed in separate incidents in southern and eastern parts of Afghanistan on the same day.
According to the website iCasualties.org, at least 459 US-led soldiers, most of them Americans, have died in Afghanistan so far this year.
Nearly 10 years after the US-led military invasion of Afghanistan, the war-ravaged country continues to be one of the least secure areas of the world despite the presence of about 150,000 American and NATO troops there. Terrorism as well as narcotics production and trade have also climbed in the country drastically since the US-led occupation.
The increasing number of troop casualties in Afghanistan has caused widespread anger in the US and other NATO member states, undermining public support for the Afghan war.
