阿富汗炸彈襲擊致14人喪生
A suicide bomber has attacked a joint Afghan-NATO patrol in eastern Afghanistan, killing at least 14 people.
一名自殺炸彈殺手在阿富汗東部襲擊了阿富汗和北約聯軍的聯合巡邏隊，炸死至少14人。NATO says the deaths Monday include three coalition service members and their interpreter. It did not identify the nationalities of the soldier or provide further details on the attack.
北約說，星期一襲擊中的喪生者包括三名聯軍軍人和他們的翻譯，但是沒有公佈喪生軍人的國籍，也沒有提供炸彈襲擊的詳細情況。Local officials say the bomber rammed a motorcycle into the patrol near a market in the city of Khost. They say the attack also killed six civilians and four police officers.
當地官員說，炸彈襲擊者在霍斯特的一個市場附近騎着摩托車衝入巡邏隊伍，並說襲擊造成6名平民和四名警察喪生。
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the bombing.
塔利班說，它爲襲擊事件負責。Meanwhile, NATO and Afghan officials are investigating a gunbattle Saturday that killed two Americans and three Afghan soldiers. The two sides have given conflicting accounts of that incident, which came days after U.S.-led coalition forces eased restrictions on joint operations with their Afghan allies.
與此同時，北約和阿富汗官員正在針對星期六導致兩名美國人和三名阿富汗人喪生的槍戰進行調查。雙方對所發生的事件有不同說法。數天前，美國領導的聯軍剛剛放鬆了對與阿富汗軍隊進行聯合行動的限制。
