| Six soldiers killed in Afghanistan |
Six international soldiers have been killed in Afghanistan, Nato officials say, making Monday the deadliest day for foreign troops there in two months.
Three Americans and a British soldier were killed in the south and a French soldier died north-east of Kabul.
The nationality of the sixth soldier has not yet been released.
The deaths came as a poll commissioned by the BBC and others showed most Afghans are increasingly upbeat about the state of their country.
Of more than 1,500 Afghans questioned, 70% said they believed Afghanistan was going in the right direction - a big jump from 40% a year ago. |
