Two Canadian soldiers and an interpreter have been killed in Afghanistan during a patrol, Radio Canada reports.
Another soldier and two Canadian journalists were injured in the same incident, which occurred in southern Afghanistan.
Public broadcaster Radio Canada said both journalists were its employees.
The incident "puts into context the very real dangers, difficulties and life threatening situations our ISAF troops, media and the interpreters who accompany them, encounter on a daily basis," said Lt.

An exact location hasn't been officially given yet for the incident, but Radio Canada reported that it occurred 41 kilometres south of Kandahar.
