According to CNN, nine americans, including four U.S. troops were killed in a suicide bombing in Afghanistan's capital on Saturday October 29, 2011. The bombing occurred when a car filled with explosives hit a armored bus in a NATO convoy. A NATO official described the bus as a heavily armored Rhino. Among the victims were two British civilian workers, four Afgans (including two students), and Canadian Master Cpl. Byron Greff. 16 foreigners in total were killed in the bombing. In a national security Saturday, Afghan President Hamid Karzai said "Afghan people are grieving by the NATO loss of lives and share the pain and sorrow with the families and friends of the troops killed".
