IRNA -- Kabul's National Security (KNC) sources said Saturday that several terrorist plots have been unveiled and thwarted during the past three days. The sources told IRNA that the chief officers of the KNC managed to detonate two BM1 missiles that were ready to be fired, aimed at the very populous "Timanee" district of the capital, on Friday night. According to the sources, the terrorists had quite professionally attached a very sensitive wick of the bombs to an amount of C4. It would have resulted in a small explosion initially after the setting aflame of the C4 material, and a massacring a large number of innocent civilians when the BM1s would have reached their targeted very populous spot. The top KNC officials believe the terrorists wished to attract more people to the place of the first explosion to inflict heavier human casualties when the main bombs would explode.

Kabul TV, too, announced on Saturday night, quoting the Afghan capital's police commanders, "The Kabul police forces managed to discover and detonate a land mine planted in third street of Kabul's Akrourian district on Saturday morning." The KNC officials accused the remnants of Taliban and Al-Qaeda forces, as well as the supporters of the head of Afghanistan's outlawed Islamic Movement Party Golboddin Hekmatyar responsible for such terrorist moves, although usually no one claims responsibility for them here.
