KABUL, Afghanistan — An International Security Assistance Force service member was killed Sept. 4 as a result of an improvised explosive device detonation in eastern Afghanistan.
"We grieve today for this tragic loss and offer our sympathies to the loved ones of this brave soldier who died while protecting the Afghan population from the insurgents" said Brig. Gen. Eric Tremblay, ISAF spokesperson.
"Improvised explosive devices emplaced by insurgents continue to indiscriminately kill and injure many Afghans everyday across this country."
It is ISAF policy to not release the nationality of any casualties before the relevant national authority doing so.
The next of kin have been informed.
