Suicide blast on foreign forces in Kabul, casualties

KABUL, June 28 (Reuters) A suicide car bomber hit a vehicle carrying foreign troops in the Afghan capital today, causing some casualties, a police official said.

The attack happened on a road leading east out of the city, but further details were not immediately available.

A spokesman for NATO said he was aware of the blast, which took place on a busy road used daily by foreign troops.

Kabul has witnessed a series of suicide attacks by Taliban this year and a suspected Taliban suicide bomber killed more than 20 police in the heart of the city on May 17.
