Two US marines have been killed and one wounded when their patrol was ambushed in an operation against resistance fighters in eastern Afghanistan, military officials said.

The marines were killed in Kunar province, which borders Pakistan, on Thursday evening, said military spokeswoman Master Sergeant Cindy Beam.

She said the wounded marine was hurt by gunfire, but she said she did not know how the two were killed.
