TALIBAN BOMBERS
Two suicide bombers have attacked, on Saturday 11/27/2010, a police HQ in Afghanistan’s South-eastern Paktika province, killing at least 12 officers. Both attackers were dressed as police officers and entered the main police compound some 20 minutes apart. A Taliban spokesman said its fighters had carried out the attack, which also injured at least 13 policemen. One attacker detonated his explosives inside the building, another one near the entrance.
The suicide bombers reportedly detonated devices in the compound of the regional police headquarters. Paktika, which borders Pakistan, has been the target of numerous attacks from insurgents (see also – Fara 07.20.08).
