Afghan Suicide Bombers Kill 1, Wounds 17
2006-10-07
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - Two suicide bombers blew themselves up in eastern Afghanistan on Friday, killing themselves and a policeman and wounding 17 other people, an official said.

“The second bomber killed himself and wounded a taxi driver after police stopped to search him at a checkpoint 10 miles southeast of Khost. The attacker was traveling in the taxi coming from neighboring Pakistan...”
The first bomber tried to enter the main police compound in the eastern Khost province, said provincial police chief Mohammed Ayub. The blast, in the city of Khost, wounded eight policemen and eight civilians including two children, Ayub said.

The second bomber killed himself and wounded a taxi driver after police stopped to search him at a checkpoint 10 miles southeast of Khost, Ayub said. No police were injured in the second blast. The attacker was traveling in the taxi coming from the neighboring Pakistan, he said.
From Pakistan you say? Wanna bet his mentor and trainer are in good standing with the ISI?
