Blasts rock Nepal
 Explosions have rocked two cities and a town in Nepal, hours after communist rebels announced an end to their unilateral ceasefire. One explosion late on Monday damaged a government building in Bhairahawa city, about 280km southwest of the capital, Kathmandu, and another hit a city council office in nearby Butwal, said a government official. Two more blasts hit near a police station in Pokhara, a resort town about 200km west of Kathmandu, a police officer in Pokhara said. No casualties were reported. No one immediately claimed responsibility, but the explosions came hours after Maoist rebels announced that they planned to resume attacks.Posted by: Fred 2006-01-03 |
