Six NATO troops—later confirmed to be all Americans—were killed today in Afghanistan, bringing the weekend death count for international troops to eight. The soldiers were slain by an improvised explosive device in eastern Afghanistan, according to the International Security Assistance Force. The attacks happened the same day diplomats from around the world met in Tokyo to discuss the future of Afghanistan, including any assistance the nation might receive. The military coalition did not offer more details, but also reported two more deaths over the weekend, one from “an insurgent attack” and another after “an improvised-explosive attack.”
