Roadside bombs and IEDs are by far the most lethal weapons, the Taliban militants have used against Afghan forces and occupying foreign troopers over the recent years.
According to the independent website, icasualties.org, as many as 223 foreign troopers, mostly Americans, have lost their lives in Afghanistan so far this year.
A total of 566 US-led forces died in Afghanistan in 2011. However, 2010 remains the deadliest year for foreign military casualties, with a death toll of 711.
The high number of military casualties in Afghanistan has intensified opposition in the United States and other NATO member states to the US-led war in the violence-scarred country.
The war began in 2001. The offensives removed the Taliban from power, but insecurity continues to rise across Afghanistan, despite the presence there of about 130,000 US-led troops.
