Rocket hits Afghan airport hours before Karzai arrives
2006-09-14
ASADABAD, Afghanistan - Two rockets struck AfghanistanÂ’s eastern city of Jalalabad on Wednesday, one hitting the airport area hours before President Hamid Karzai flew in, but neither caused any casualties.
Are we sure Hek is in stir?
One of the rockets hit the outskirts of the airport compound at about 8:00 am (0330 GMT), Nangarhar province police spokesman Ghafoor Khan told AFP. The other rocket hit a civilian home, Khan said.

Karzai arrived about two hours later, followed by Pakistan Prime Minister Shaukat Aziz, to open a new road.
