Afghan Warlord’s Call to Arms Rattles Officials
Reported security incidents
#1: Rockets struck near Kabul’s presidential palace and international airport on the 11th anniversary of the Taliban withdrawal from the Afghan capital, killing one and wounding three, police say. Police said four rockets were fired from a vineyard northeast of Kabul, with two landing “near” Kabul international airport without causing any casualties. Airport sources said one of the rockets exploded in a car park at the airport and another landed near a police checkpost but failed to detonate. A third rocket hit the compound of the privately run Shamshad TV station without causing casualties. “But unfortunately, the fourth one landed in District 9 (near the presidential palace) and hit a car, wounding three civilians and killing one,” Kabul police said in a statement.
#2: A roadside bomb attack left four Afghan National Army (ANA) troops dead and two wounded in Bala Murghab district of Badghis province last night, an army officer said Monday. A landmine exploded on ANA patrol in Akazai village of Bala Murghab district, killing four troops and wounding two others, an army officer in western Badghis province, told Afghan Islamic Press (AIP). He said a clash also took place between Taliban and Afghan army troops after the bomb attack but did not caused any casualties to troops, adding it was unclear if Taliban suffered any damage or not.
#3: A press release issued by media office of Wardak governor said three anti-government gunmen were emplacing a landmine in Madad village of Chak district to target security force when the landmine exploded prematurely. He said all the three gunmen were killed in the explosion.
#4: A bicycle bomb apparently targeting security forces killed two people and injured nine others at airport road in Quetta on Tuesday, Geo News reported. According to police, the device exploded on the road from Quetta to the airport as a convoy of the government paramilitary Frontier Corps (FC) passed nearby. “Two people passing by were killed in the blast and nine others wounded. The injured also included three FC soldiers,” a senior police official told. Firing was also reported after the explosion. Law enforcement agencies and rescue teams immediately reached the spot to initiate rescue efforts.
