Three more NATO soldiers killed in Afghanistan

KABUL, Aug 3 (Reuters) Three more NATO soldiers were killed today in southern Afghanistan in the latest in a series of attacks that killed a Canadian earlier in the day, the alliance said in a statement.

Six other soldiers were wounded in the attack using rocket-propelled grenades, hours after the Canadian soldier was killed and four more wounded in two separate roadside bombings in the same area.

At least 21 Afghan civilians were also killed in a suicide car bombing aimed at a NATO patrol nearby late in the day, local officials said.
