| Bomb hidden in toy found outside UN building in Kabul |
| 2002-10-25 |
| Multinational security forces in Afghanistan confirmed the discovery of a bomb concealed in a child's remote-controlled car outside a United Nations guesthouse in the centre of Kabul. The device, which was destroyed in a controlled explosion late Wednesday, was spotted by a United Nations employee as he drove up to the compound, said commander Geoff Wintle of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF). A cordon was immediately thrown around the area and a German bomb disposal team was called in. The device was detonated shortly after 10:00 pm local time, in a blast that caused minor damage to nearby buildings. There were no casualties. Sounds like the Secret Army of Doom... |
