                3 NATO Soldiers Killed in Afghan Insider Attack

   The NATO-led force in Afghanistan says three of its troops were killed
   Saturday when a man wearing an Afghan security forces uniform shot
   them.
   Afghan officials confirmed the incident, saying the attack took place
   in the eastern province of Paktia.
   So-called "insider attacks," when Afghan forces turn their guns on
   their foreign partners, have killed large numbers of foreign soldiers
   in Afghanistan.
   The attacks come as foreign forces are training the Afghans to take
   over the nation`s security, ahead of NATO`s withdrawal next year.
   In a statement, NATO said it is working with Afghan officials to assess
   Saturday`s incident.
   In line with NATO policy, the statement did not give the victims`
   nationalities.
