KABUL, Afghanistan - A roadside bomb hit an American military vehicle in southeastern Afghanistan, killing two U.S. soldiers and an Afghan interpreter, the U.S. military said Sunday.
Another U.S. soldier was injured in the blast on Saturday about 60 miles southwest of the city of Ghazni, a military statement said. The wounded soldier was flown to the U.S. base in the southern city of Kandahar for treatment and was in stable condition.
The dead soldiers would not be identified before next of kin were notified, the statement said.
Some 58 American soldiers have died in action in Afghanistan since U.S. forces entered the country in 2001 to drive out the Taliban and its al-Qaida allies.
