KABUL, Afghanistan, Nov. 6 (UPI) -- A spokeswoman for the NATO-led force in Afghanistan said Friday that searches for two missing force members have proved fruitless.
International Security Assistance Force spokeswoman Navy Capt. Jane Campbell said the soldiers, whose identities were not released, went missing Wednesday during a resupply mission in western Afghanistan.
"We continue exhaustive search-and-rescue operations to locate our missing service members. We are doing everything we can to find them," Campbell told CNN.
"The families of these service members have been notified about their loved ones' status, and we will continue to keep them informed as information becomes available," she added.
Sayed Ahmad Sami, police chief for the province of Baghdis, said the two soldiers, whose nationalities were not released, were near Afghanistan's border with Turkmenistan when they disappeared.
The International Security Assistance Force said on its Web site its forces are constituted of service members from 42 countries, including 28 NATO countries.
