    Three UK soldiers die in Helmand

    Three British soldiers have been killed in an explosion in Afghanistan, the Ministry of Defence has said.

    Two of the soldiers were from 2nd Battalion The Rifles and the third was from 40 Regiment Royal Artillery.

    They were killed while on foot patrol near Sangin in Helmand province on Thursday morning. Their next of kin have been informed.

    The deaths bring the total in Afghanistan since the start of operations in 2001 to 199.

    Rest easy men.

    Personal comment: I'm not Sandhurst trained, but there is clearly something very wrong with the way operations are being conducted.
