Afghan police kill four NATO troops
Four NATO soldiers were killed Sunday in the second suspected attack by Afghan police in two days, AFP reported.
Afghan authorities said the shooting took place in Zabul province, part of the restive south, but the Islamist militia denied responsibility.
The US-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) released few details other than that it was “suspected to involve members of the Afghan police.”
A senior provincial official confirmed that NATO forces came under fire, and that the Westerners returned fire, killing one policeman.
