Suicide bomber hits U S-led convoy

KANDAHAR, Afghanistan, July 24: A suicide bomber targetted a U S-led coalition convoy in Afghanistan's southern province of Kandahar today, but there was no immediate word about casualties, police said.

The attack occurred on a main road outside Kandahar city, where a double suicide attack killed two Canadian soldiers with the coalition and six Afghans on Saturday. A coalition spokesman in Kandahar said foreign troops were investigating an explosion east of the city, but did not have more details.
