Uniformed Suicide Bomber Kills 9 at Afghan Military Base

Earlier today at Forward Operating Base Gamberi in Laghman Province, Afghanistan, a suicide bomber detonated explosives killing five foreign soldiers. Four Afghan military servicemen also died. The blast wounded eight more Afghan soldiers and four interpreters. The bomber was reported wearing a Afghan National Army uniform. According to Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mojahed, the bomber, Abdul Ghani, "joined the Afghan National Army a month ago in order to kill the invaders." The Laghman Province base is controlled by the Afghan National Security Forces. There was no further information available from the ISAF, the International Security Assistance Force, at that time.
