AP. 26 October 2001. Jets Strike Kabul on Day of Prayer.

KABUL -- U.S. jets struck the Afghan capital Friday on the Muslim day of
prayer, rocking the city with huge explosions and reportedly blasting a
Red Cross compound for a second time this month.

Three children were killed in overnight attacks on the city, hospital
officials said.

After another night of sometimes intense bombing, three huge detonations
shook Kabul at midday, raising clouds of smoke from the direction of the
airport and the Khair Khana district to the north. It was unclear where
the third explosion occurred.

One of the blasts struck a compound of the International Committee of
the Red Cross, according to security guard Abdul Shakour.

He said warehouses used to store humanitarian supplies were damaged and
stocks of rice, beans, blankets and oil were on fire. The compound was
hit during an attack Oct. 16.

During late night bombing Thursday, three children were killed -- two
from one family living in the northwest area of the city and a third
from the east part of town, officials at the Wazir Akbar Khan Hospital
said.

During a sermon at a Kabul mosque Friday, an Islamic cleric said the
"infidel hit our nation, even on Friday. They are very unkind to our
people." He urged the faithful to be patient because "we will win."
