A suicide bomber kills at least 10 people, including four U.S. troops in Northern Afghanistan Wednesday.

Afghan police say the soldiers strayed from their base to take photographs in a park, in a relatively peaceful part of the country.

Four civilians and two Afghan policemen were also killed in the attack, which came ahead of the traditional summer fighting season.

More than 2,900 foreign soldiers have died in Afghanistan since the war was launched more than a decade ago.
