Three British soldiers killed in Afghanistan

In what appears to have been the latest „green-on-blue“ incident, the gunman shot the three troops at checkpoint Kamparack Pul in Nahr-e-Saraj, Helmand province, during what should have been a routine visit on Sunday afternoon. All three were treated at the scene, but died from their injuries, the Ministry of Defence said.
