Suicide attack kills 10 in Afghanistan
Jan 5, 2005

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan (Reuters) - A suicide bomber drove a car into a group of Afghan policemen in central Afghanistan on Thursday, killing 10 people, a provincial spokesman said.

About 10 people were wounded in the incident in Tarin Kot, capital of Uruzgan province, said Abdullah Jan, a spokesman for the provincial governor.

"It was a suicide attack and we are not sure how many of the 10 people killed in the attack are civilians and how many are policemen," he told Reuters.

The attack happened in a bazaar a few hundred meters (yards) from the headquarters of the provincial government. Some of the wounded were rushed by helicopter to hospital in neighboring Kandahar province, the spokesman said.

2. Didn't someone in Afganistan say last week that Al Quaeda had
scores of people who were willing ready and able to die as martyrs while killing Americans, and that they would start doing this soon?
