US Troops Killed In Afghan 'Insider Attack' -- BBC

Several US and Afghan commandos have been shot dead in a so-called insider attack, US and Afghan sources say.

Several others were wounded in the attack at a remote military base in Wardak province, not far from Kabul.

The US military called the attack a "betrayal". The killer - a member of the Afghan security forces - was shot dead at the scene.

Last year more than 60 Nato troops were killed by Afghan security personnel or insurgents posing as them.

The gunman - a member of the Afghan army or police - opened fire as US special forces and Afghan commandos held an early morning meeting.

Two US soldiers were among those killed, the US military said.
