Kabul, Sept 16 (IBNS): The International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) on Tuesday said three of its personnel were killed during an attack in Kabul.

"We can confirm three International Security Assistance Force members died as a result of an enemy attack in Kabul today. Currently, Afghan officials and ISAF are reviewing the incident," the ISAF said in a statement.

"It is ISAF policy to defer casualty identification procedures to the relevant national authorities," it said.

Three security personnel were killed and 15 others injured in a blast.

The Taliban has claimed responsibility for the attack.

"Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack, with the group’s spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid saying that two NATO vehicles were destroyed and a large number of foreign troops killed in the car-suicide bombing," Pajhwok Afghan News reported.
