Two Canadian soldiers and their Afghan interpreter have been killed and three more wounded by a roadside bomb in southern Afghanistan.
They were killed and the others wounded when their vehicle hit an explosive device, Colonel Christian Juneau told a press conference in Kandahar which was broadcasted by the Canadian public television.
The new deaths take the Canadian death toll to 207 this year fighting the resurgent Taliban movement which was in government from 1996 to 2001.
Canada has around 2,500 soldiers in southern Afghanistan.
