KABUL - A foreign national was killed and at least five other people wounded in a grenade attack on a United Nations vehicle in Kabul on Sunday, an Afghan official said.
The attack happened on a road frequently used by UN traffic shuttling workers between central Kabul and a large UN compound on the outskirts of the capital.
Aside from the one fatality, Rahimi said five other people - including two Afghan staff - were wounded. The nationalities of the other victims were not released. The blast comes during what has been a period of relative and uneasy calm in Kabul, where large-scale attacks have dropped over recent weeks.
But Afghans are still waiting for the results of that 28 September poll, with a recount bogged down by various technical difficulties and complaints from main candidates.
