Bomb kills a U.S. soldier in Afghanistan

A bomb exploded Tuesday near U.S. and Afghan troops as they patrolled in volatile eastern Afghanistan, killing a U.S. soldier and wounding another, the military said.

The incident occurred a day after suicide bombers rammed cars filled with explosives into NATO peacekeepers in two attacks in the Afghan capital — the first major assault on foreign troops in Kabul in more than a year. The death toll rose to nine Tuesday as police found more bodies in a ditch and a wounded man died.

Police blamed al-Qaida for the suicide bombings. Such seemingly coordinated attacks are unprecedented in Afghanistan, and reinforced fears that Taliban insurgents are copying tactics used in Iraq.

In the latest violence, the U.S. and Afghan troops were traveling in an armored vehicle in Paktika province when the bomb exploded. Two Afghan soldiers and a civilian were also wounded, the military said.

The death brought to 204 the number of U.S. troops killed in and around Afghanistan since the ouster of the Taliban in late 2001. It comes amid a surge in rebel activity this year that has killed almost 1,500 people.

Monday's bombings occurred within 90 minutes of each other on a 500-yard stretch of road near the headquarters of Afghan-U.N. election organizers. In each case, the attackers rammed their cars into NATO vehicles. Troops thwarted a suspected third bombing by fatally shooting three people in a car racing toward the scene of the blasts.
