TUZLA AIR BASE, Bosnia-Herzegovina —
Two soldiers from the NATO-led peacekeeping force in Bosnia were killed Wednesday and two were injured when their vehicle hit a land mine.
The North Atlantic Treaty Organization said the troops were part of a brigade made up of soldiers from Denmark, Sweden, Norway, Poland, Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia.
NATO withheld the names and nationalities of the victims pending notification of next of kin.
The deaths are the second and third mine-related fatalities since the forces arrived in December.
