KABUL (HRNW) – More than a dozen rockets struck the Afghan capital Tuesday, wounding at least 10 civilians as the country marked the 101st anniversary of its independence, the interior ministry said.
Fourteen rockets were fired from two vehicles in Kabul, interior ministry spokesman Tareq Arian said, adding that two suspects had been arrested.
“Most of these rockets have hit civilian houses in Kabul,” Arian said.
“Unfortunately, 10 civilians including four children and one woman have been wounded.”
