...bombing was the first such attack in the middle of the capital since a suicide bomber detonated himself on an army bus on Sept. 29, killing at least 35 Afghan National Army soldiers. But it came a day after a bomb planted on a little-used road on the fringes of the capital exploded, killing four. And on Saturday, a suicide bomber blew himself up in the town of Paghman, 15 miles outside Kabul, in an attack on Italian military engineers building a footbridge. One soldier and eight Afghans were killed in that attack, including three children. The Taliban have...
