Nato Soldier Dies in Crash

One soldier from Nato-led forces in Afghanistan has died when an armoured jeep crashed in the south of the country, a Nato statement says.

Three other soldiers from the International Security Assistance Force (Isaf) were injured in the incident in the province of Kandahar. The injured soldiers were airlifted to a local army hospital.

The crash was not the result of hostile action, the statement says.
It says the soldiers were accompanying a supply convoy.

Nato forces formally took control of military operations in southern Afghanistan from the US-led coalition which overthrew the Taliban in 2001.
