Six foreigners killed in Kabul attack: Afghan official
KABUL (AFP) - – Six foreigners have been killed and another five wounded in an attack on a Kabul guesthouse used by staff of the United Nations, an Afghan official said Wednesday.
The United Nations confirmed earlier that three UN staff members staying at the guesthouse were killed.
"Three suicide bombers have been killed during the police operation, they were armed suicide bombers," said Zemarai Bashary, spokesman for the interior ministry.
"Unfortunately six foreigners have been killed, five foreigners have been wounded," he told AFP.
He had no other details.
An Afghan soldier by the site of the attack, in a busy shopping district near Kabul's Butcher Street, said four men and one woman were among the dead.
One police officer and one intelligence officer had also been killed, he said, speaking on condition of anonymity. Related article: Doubts over Afghan run-off
