JOINT BASE ELMENDORF-RICHARDSON, Alaska — Four Alaska-based soldiers were killed by an improvised explosive device in Laghman province, Afghanistan, the Army said Saturday.

The soldiers, from the 3rd Maneuver Enhancement Brigade at Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson, were on a mounted patrol, the Army said.

Their names were withheld while their families were notified.

NATO reported earlier Saturday that four coalition troops were killed by a roadside bomb in eastern Afghanistan. The alliance did not provide further details.
