It did not reveal the nationalities of the victims under the ISAF policy. Earlier Tuesday, a provincial Afghan official put the number of the victims at four. The attack took place in Zharary district of southern Kandahar province at about 3:00 p.m. local time, the provincial government spokesman Jawid Faisal told Xinhua earlier in the day, adding the victims were Americans.
