Default UK to send extra troops to Afghanistan

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain is to send additional troops to Afghanistan, Prime Minister Gordon Brown said on Monday.

"Today Britain will announce additional troops for Afghanistan, bringing our numbers in Afghanistan to the highest level," he told reporters in a joint press conference with U.S. President George W. Bush.

Five British troops were killed last week, bringing the total number of military deaths in Afghanistan since 2001 to 102.
