[Khaama (Afghanistan)] The casualties toll from coordinated suicide kabooms in capital Kabul
...the capital of Afghanistan. Home to continuous fighting from 1992 to 1996 between the forces of would-be strongman and Pak ISI/Jamaat-e-Islami sock puppet Gulbuddin Hekmayar and the Northern Alliance, a period which won Hek the title Most Evil Man in the World and didn't do much for the reputations of the Northern Alliance guys either....
has climbed to at least 22 dead while nearly 120 others have sustained injuries.

The officials in the Ministry of Public Health of Afghanistan (MoPH) have said ordinary civilians are also among those killed or maimed.

MoPH front man Mohammad Ismail Kawoosi confirmed Thursday that 22 people bit the dust in the two attacks.

He said around 120 others sustained injuries including civilians.

The Taliban group grabbed credit behind the attacks which was widely condemned with the Afghan government saying the group is attempting to boost the morale of its fighters by conducting attacks in crowded places.

The attack was initially launched in the vicinity of the 6th police district of the city after a boom-mobile exploded to allow the remaining hard boyz infiltrate inside the PD#6 compound.

The shootout between the Afghan cops and the assailants continued for several hours before the compound was cleared of the krazed killers.

The second attack took place in the vicinity of 12th police district of the city but it was shortly brought under the control by the security forces.
