Three American soldiers were killed Friday when a man in an Afghan uniform turned his weapon against them, the US military said, in the third so-called green-on-blue attack in less than a week.
A spokeswoman said "an individual in an Afghan uniform fired on US services members in Sangin district of Helmand province. There were three US fatalities. We're investigating to determine the facts," she said, without giving details of whether the shooter had been killed, captured or escaped.
Radio report suggested other police were complicit. |
