"Three International Security Assistance Force service members died following an improvised explosive device attack in eastern Afghanistan today," NATO`s ISAF said in a statement.
ISAF did not release the location of the attack or the nationalities of the soldiers, in keeping with policy.
According to a tally kept by icasualties.org, 145 foreign troops have been killed so far this year in Afghanistan, where some 130,000 US-led troops are fighting an insurgency by hardline Taliban militants. (*)
