2010 September 1
Latest media report says the number of US soldiers killed in the Afghan war in 2010 is the highest annual toll since the conflict began almost nine years ago. A total of 323 US soldiers have been killed in the Afghan war this year, compared to 317 in 2009. At 490, the overall death toll for foreign troops for the first eight months of the year is rapidly nearing the casualty figure of 521 of 2009 which itself was a record figure since the start of the war in late 2001.
In all, 1,270 US troops have lost their lives since the conflict began with the US-led invasion of Afghanistan following the September 11 attacks on the United States in 2001.
