Taliban attack leaves 7 Afghan police dead
2010-11-11
(Xinhua) -- Talibs stormed a police checkpoint in southern Uruzgan province in the wee hours of Wednesday killing seven coppers, deputy to provincial governor Khudai Rahim confirmed. "The attack happened in Khas Uruzgan district at 01:00 a.m. local time as a result seven coppers were killed and two others sustained injuries," Rahim told Xinhua.

However,
The infamous However...
he did not give more details.
What a waste of a perfectly good sentence.

Talibs who vowed to overthrow the Afghan government and evict NATO-led forces from the post-Taliban country have intensified their activities.
There wasn't a lot of content in that one, either.
Taliban-linked activities left two security guards of a construction company dead in the eastern Khost province and injured three others on the same day Wednesday.

Furthermore, Taliban-led militancy injured at least 10 civilians in the eastern Nangarhar province and damaged two vehicles of NATO-led forces in the northern Kunduz province on the same day Wednesday.
