Afghan police forces kill 4 US-led soldiers
NATO’s International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said the latest insider attacks on the foreign soldiers were carried out on Sunday.

The Western military coalition did not provide further details.

On Saturday, an Afghan soldier killed two US-led soldiers in the southern province of Helmand.

According to ISAF figures, the so-called green-on-blue attacks, in which Afghan soldiers turn their weapons against foreign forces, have killed nearly 50 foreign soldiers in the country this year.

Meanwhile, the independent website icasualties.org shows that at least 332 foreign troops, most of them Americans, have died in Afghanistan so far in 2012.

    The latest attack in Afghanistan comes as anti-US sentiments have been on the rise across the country over a blasphemous US-made movie which insults Prophet Mohammad (PBUH).


Fresh angry protests have erupted in Afghanistan against the sacrilegious movie and Afghan lawmakers have called on the government to cancel a security pact with Washington.
