| (CBS/AP) KABUL, Afghanistan - Two men in Afghan police uniforms shot at U.S. troops in southern Afghanistan Sunday, killing one and injuring another, Afghan security officials tell CBS News.. ISAF, the international military coalition in Afghanistan, confirmed the latest "insider attack" took place in Spin Boldak, in Kandahar province, on Sunday evening, but would not confirm the nationalities of Western forces who came under attack. Sunday's shooting brings to 32 the number of reported green-on-blue, or insider attacks in 2012. At least 40 coalition forces have been killed in such incidents this year, including 26 Americans. At least ten Western forces have been killed in insider attacks in just two weeks. |
