Two US Soldiers Killed In Afghan Blast As Karzai Sworn In - NATO

KABUL (AFP) -- Two U.S. soldiers were killed by a car bomb in southern Afghanistan Thursday, at the same time Afghan President Hamid Karzai was being sworn in for a second five-year term in the capital, NATO said.

The blast, which an Afghan army soldier described as a suicide car bomb, occurred at 11 a.m. (0630 GMT), as Karzai's inauguration ceremony got underway in Kabul.

"I can confirm two U.S. service members were killed in an improvised explosive explosion in Zabul province. It was a car bomb," Lt. Nicol Melendez said.
