Six soldiers of the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) were killed in a<br />

shooting incident on Monday in east Afghanistan and the alliance said in a press release<br />

that it is probing whether an Afghan police is involved in the bloody attack.<br />

"An individual in an Afghan Border Police uniform turned his weapon against<br />

International Security Assistance Forces during a training mission today, killing six service<br />

members in eastern Afghanistan," ISAF said in a press release issued here.<br />

The individual who fired on the ISAF forces was also killed in the incident.<br />

"A joint Afghan and ISAF team is investigating this incident," the press release added.<br />

However, it did not disclose the nationalities of the victims and the exact place of the<br />

incident saying "It is ISAF policy to defer casualty identification procedures to the<br />

relevant national authorities."<br />

Troops mostly from the Unites States have been stationed in eastern Afghan provinces<br />

within the ISAF framework to help stabilize security there.<br />
