KABUL on Saturday, the alliance said.

One service-member succumbed to a non-battle-related injury while the other died in an insurgent attack in the Taliban’s eastern heartland.

The deaths were announced in brief statements from the NATO-led force that did not reveal the soldiers’ nationalities in line with its policy.

Mostly US troops are stationed in eastern Afghanistan. With the latest fatalities, the number of foreign troops killed in Afghanistan so far during the current year has reached 239, including 177 Americans.
