KABUL (Reuters) - A brother of Afghan President Hamid Karzai Monday survived an attack on his motorcade that killed one of his bodyguards, Ahmad Wali Karzai told Reuters.
Karzai was traveling from eastern Nangarhar province to the capital at the time of the ambush, which he blamed on Taliban insurgents who he said were targeting him.
