KABUL: SUICIDE ATTACK TARGETS AIRPORT

AFGHANISTAN: Misna; A suicide bomber blew himself up at the military entrance of the airport of the Afghan capital Kabul, killing one Afghan soldier and wounding another four people, including two civilians and two soldiers of the NATO-led ISAF (International Security Assistance Force), based on a still preliminary toll.
According to Defence ministry spokesman Mohammad Zahir Azimi, the car-bomb struck a military vehicle transiting along the entrance road to the airport.
The suicide bomber first attempted to target two vehicles of the German coalition troops, but did not blow up, allowing them to escape at high speed instants before the explosion. The attack occurred this morning at 7:30 local time. [BO]
