ISLAMABAD, April 14 (Xinhuanet) -- Unidentified militants Sunday
morning fired three rockets at Khost airport in eastern
Afghanistan, according to the Peshawar-based Afghan Islamic Press
(AIP).
   Quoting sources in Khost, the private news agency said the
rockets were targeted at the U.S. troops stationed at the airport.
   Khost Governor Mohammed Ibrahim told the AIP that the rockets
did not hit the airport but fell near the airfields, which caused
no damages.
   The governor said the attack could be linked to local rivalries
but did not rule out the involvement of Al-Qaeda or Taliban
militants.  Enditem
