London, July 28 (DPA) Two more British soldiers have died in separate bomb blasts in Afghanistan, bringing the total killed there so far this month to 22, the defence ministry in London said Monday.
It said one of the men who died was taking part in the second stage of Operation Panther’s Claw, the US-led offensive in southern Afghanistan. Both deaths occurred Monday.
July has proved the “bloodiest” month so far for British troops in Afghanistan, where 191 service personnel have now died since operations began in 2001.
