Even as there was fresh hope for a deal with the Taliban that could end the U.S.' longest war, Americans lost their lives in Afghanistan.
The NATO Resolute Support Mission in Afghanistan said two American service members have been killed—an announcement that comes a day after U.S. officials announced a return to Qatar to resume negotiations with the Taliban to end America's longest conflict.
The military official said the two service members died after sustaining gunshot wounds while on a joint operation with Afghan special operation soldiers in the Achin District of Nangarhar Province, located in eastern Afghanistan. Three of the Afghan commandos were wounded in the firefight, said the source.
On Friday, President Donald Trump convened a meeting of top national security figures he later described as"very good." He suggested both sides of the conflict were"looking to make a deal—if possible."in the Afghan capital of Kabul killed some 63 people and wounded nearly 200 more.
