The soldiers, from 3rd Battalion The Yorkshire Regiment, were killed at a checkpoint in the south of Nahr-e Saraj district in Helmand province.





The deaths follow that of a soldier from 1st Battalion Grenadier Guards who died on Friday after his vehicle hit a roadside bomb.





They also come the day after Camp Bastion, the UK's headquarters in Afghanistan, came under attack by Taliban fighters.The insurgents claim they were targeting Prince Harry, who is an Apache helicopter pilot based at Bastion.





Major Laurence Roche, spokesman for Task Force Helmand, said: “It is with deep sadness that I must report the death of two soldiers from 3rd Battalion The Yorkshire Regiment who were shot and killed by a man wearing the uniform of the Afghan Local Police at a checkpoint in the south of Nahr-e Saraj.





“The Yorkshire Regiment has suffered a deep loss today and everyone serving within Task Force Helmand will want to send our condolences to the soldiers’ families and loved ones at this time.”

      I reeled him into saying "no wonder Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world"..

      It never occurs to them that no one but a fellow mullah'tard would say that..

    • @guronimo

      Noble? lol After 10+ yrs of fighting these "mullahtards" will take over when NATO forces leave. Then your noble warriors would have died for nothing. The 2 soldiers got killed by the same people who they are training. You can't achieve victory in that place, pick up ur shit and get the fuck out.

  • Breaking News: Afghan policemen have just shot dead 4 NATO special forces troops (Their nationality has not been released but they were not from the UK contingent).
    Reports suggest the attackers managed to escape.

  • It would be easy to leave this god-forsaken land to the blood thirsty bastards that Islam has created to live them IF only Russia and China would agree to completely isolate them.

    China and Russia are the real enemy. Islam is a harmless cult if the world were to unite against its foolish rhetoric.

      Ohhh shut up brainwashed ignorant.

      Tell us ... What "evil" thing that these two nations are doing to you justify this accusation.

      Canadians don't have personality.
      You copy the USA on everything, even their schizophrenic hate you copy.
