Rocket Fired at Peacekeepers HQ in Afghan Capital

Sun March 30, 2003 03:47 PM ET

KABUL (Reuters) -
A rocket landed inside the headquarters of the international peacekeeping force in the Afghan capital Kabul on Sunday evening, but there were no injuries, peacekeepers said.
It was the latest in a series of attacks on foreign troops and aid workers in Afghanistan since the start of war in Iraq, and Afghan government officials blamed it on remnants of the ousted Taliban militia.

Lieutenant-Colonel Thomas Lobbering, spokesman for the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) said the 107-mm rocket had damaged some unoccupied buildings inside the headquarters compound, including a barber shop.

"There were no injuries," he told Reuters.

Another rocket fell just outside the town, also without causing any injuries, Afghan police and government officials said, adding that they had apparently been fired from around five km (three miles) to the east.

Lobbering said the ISAF headquarters was not necessarily the target of the attack.

"It was a lucky shot," he said. "There is no way you can aim this type of weapon at a particular target."

The Afghan ministry of defense and the U.S. embassy are also located close to the ISAF headquarters in the center of town.

In the past week, an El Salvadorean Red Cross worker and two American special forces soldiers were killed in separate incidents in the south of Afghanistan, blamed on remnants of the former Taliban regime.

An Afghan government official said several Taliban members had been caught trying to enter the country in recent days, adding that this attack was probably the handiwork of their associates.

"They are trying to regroup," he said. "They want to destabilize the situation because of Iraq."

Germany and the Netherlands have joint command of the multinational ISAF, which is designed to keep peace in the Afghan capital.

The fundamentalist Taliban were ousted in late 2001 by U.S.-backed opposition groups. Thousands of U.S. troops remain in the country, searching for remnants of the hardline militia and the al Qaeda network of Osama bin Laden.

Rocket attacks are common against U.S. bases around the country but usually miss their intended target without causing injuries or damage. There have also been several attacks apparently aimed at the international peacekeeping force in Kabul in recent months.
