One dead in suicide blast near NATO convoy in AfghanistanA suicide bomber exploded a bomb-filled car near a convoy of NATO-led troops in southern Afghanistan, killing one person and wounding five, police and witnesses said. There were no International Security Assistance Force casualties in the blast in the southern city of Kandahar but a military vehicle was damaged, an ISAF spokesman told AFP.
Police at the scene said one person, who appeared to be a Pakistani national, was killed. Five Afghans were wounded, police colonel Abdul Ali told AFP. Parts of the attacker's body littered the site. "It was a suicide attack," Ali said.
