Sydney Morning Herald April 28, 2002 Explosions hit capital, new fighting erupts April 28 2002 AAP Kabul's international airport has been hit by three explosions, in what is believed to be a series of rocket attacks. Military sources say there are no injuries. British and French troops based near the airport have been put on full alert following the blasts. The explosions came just hours before US Defence Secretary Donald Rumsfeld is due to arrive at Bagram Air Base, 50 kilometres north of Kabul. He is expected to travel to the Afghan capital to hold talks with interim leader Hamid Karzai. Meanwhile remnants of Taliban and al-Qaeda forces have attacked the main eastern Afghanistan town of Gardez near where the biggest US-led ground battle of the Afghan war was fought last month. The Afghan Islamic Press says artillery and rockets were used in yesterday's fighting which killed four and wounded nine. Gardez has been the scene of bitter infighting between rival warlords from the majority ethnic Pashtun community since the beginning of the year. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
