| AIP says 13 civilians killed in bombing |
| 2001-10-28 |
U.S. attacks on Kabul killed at least 13 civilians, witnesses said, one day after U.S. missiles rocketed hamlets along the front line north of here, killing and maiming villagers. American warplanes also pounded targets in the northern city of Mazar-e-Sharif, the Taliban stronghold of Kandahar in the south, Herat in the west and Jalalabad in the east, said the Afghan Islamic Press, a private news agency. Late Sunday, U.S. jets were back over the skies of the beleaguered Afghan capital, and strong explosions could be heard in the direction of the main road from Kabul to the opposition-controlled Bagram air base. |
