KABUL, July 6 (Reuters) - Four foreign soldiers with NATO-led forces were killed by a roadside bomb in Kunduz in northern Afghanistan on Monday, a spokesman for the alliance and an Afghan police official said.

The coalition spokesman did not give any more details about the blast or the nationality of the victims. Germany has about 3,700 troops in Afghanistan, most of them based in Kunduz and other northern provinces.
