One killed as Kabul car bomb hits foreign forces

KABUL: A suicide car bomb targeting a foreign forces convoy rocked eastern Kabul Friday, killing at least one child and injuring 22 people just days after Afghanistan unveiled plans for Taliban peace talks, the interior ministry said.
Extensive damage to the facades of nearby houses could be seen with debris scattered on pavements as witnesses reported a strong explosion.Security forces rushed to the scene as passers-by helped move the wounded, with witnesses complaining to AFP that ambulances took around half an hour to arrive.
A horse was also badly injured in the blast and could be seen stumbling at the scene ? its head, belly and legs burnt ? before it was finally taken pity on and killed on the spot with a knife, an AFP reporter at the scene said. ?Unfortunately around 9:00 am, a car bombing took place in (the) Qabil Bay area of Kabul.
The target of the attack was a foreign forces convoy,? interior ministry spokesman Najib Danish told AFP, adding that police are investigating. His deputy Nasrat Rahimi said a 12-year-old boy was killed, and 22 civilians injured.
US sees hope for negotiated end to Afghan war: The United States dared to permit itself renewed hope Thursday that the longest war in its history may be closer to a negotiated settlement, after Afghan-led talks went better than expected.
After 17 years of guerrilla conflict and several diplomatic false starts, American officials take nothing for granted ? and they still expect the spring thaw to herald more fierce fighting.US State Department spokeswoman Heather Nauert made it clear that Washington is glad that Ghani used to conference to signal to the absent Taliban that ?there are no preconditions for peace.?
Since a US-led intervention in Afghanistan in the aftermath of the September 11, 2001 attacks overthrew the Taliban regime, the Islamist group has been under pressure to renounce its hardline ideals.But Ghani and US officials now accept that the Taliban can enter peace talks without first accepting the country´s new democratic constitution and its protections for women and minority groups.
