Two people dressed in Afghan military uniforms killed two NATO service members on Saturday, according to the NATO-led mission there.
The incident occurred in southern Afghanistan.
The service members died after the pair opened fire on a compound.
Forces of the NATO-led Resolute Support mission returned fire and killed the shooters.
The killed NATO troops were Romanian. That country's president, Klaus Iohannis, issued a statement of condolence on his Facebook page. Another Romanian soldier was wounded.
CNN is trying to confirm reports that the Taliban claimed responsibility.
The attackers wore Afghan National Defense and Security Forces uniforms.
Afghan and NATO officials are conducting an investigation into the incident.
