Afghan officials say suspected Taleban insurgents have killed five Afghan medical workers and six policemen,
while four rockets exploded in the capital, Kabul. The aid workers were attacked early today Wednesday in southern Kandahar district. The Afghan Help Development Services says the victims were two doctors, two nurses and their driver.
Militants also ambushed a police convoy in central Uruzgan province, killing six officers. It was the second attack on the police force in as many days. Elsewhere, at least four rockets exploded in Kabul, one of them outside the residence of the Canadian ambassador, wounding two Afghan security guards.
A senior Afghan official says U.S. aircraft bombed a suspected Taleban hideout in the Charchino district of Uruzgan late Monday, killing 10 insurgents.
