Three U.S. service members were killed Tuesday in a roadside bombing in Afghanistan, The Associated Press reports.
The Pentagon says three other service members and one American contractor were injured in the blast, which took place near the city of Ghazni. Those wounded are currently being treated, but the victims have not yet been identified. No one has claimed responsibility for the attack, but as AP reports, the Taliban is active in Ghazni.
