A suicide attack targeting a NATO-Afghan border police compound in eastern Afghanistan killed two foreign soldiers and wounded several others.

The attack took place late Tuesday in Khost, the same province where a Jordanian doctor turned Al-Qaeda double agent blew himself up in December killing seven CIA employees.

"Initial reports indicate a suicide bomber detonated himself killing two ISAF service members and injuring several others," the NATO-run International Security Assistance Force said in a statement.

The nationalities of the soldiers were not released.

The suicide attack on December 30 at a US military base in Khost, near the Pakistani border, killed seven CIA employees and the bomber's Jordanian handler in the deadliest attack on the US spy agency in 26 years.
