One Dead, Two Hurt in Attack on Kabul Peacekeepers
One man was killed and two were wounded when one or two grenades were thrown at the entrance of a base of the 22-nation peacekeeping force in Kabul on Thursday, the second attack on foreign troops in the Afghan capital this week. The attack happened at the gate of Camp Warehouse, one of the main bases of the International Security Assistance Force and the headquarters of ISAF's German-commanded Kabul Multinational Brigade. Paul Weber, a spokesman for the German ISAF contingent, told Reuters the three casualties all appeared to be Afghans. "Maybe two handgrenades; two injured Afghans -- maybe local; and one guy dead -- probably the attacker," he said, adding that the dead man appeared to have been killed by his own grenade.Clueless in Kabul.
