Two killed, five injured in bombing in Afghan capital

    KABUL, May 7 (Xinhuanet) -- Two Afghans were killed and five wounded Saturday in a bombing at an Internet caf in Afghan capital Kabul, local TV reported.

    It was an act of terrorism, and the police were trying to determine if the explosion had been carried by a suicide attacker or placed in the caf, Kabul police chief Akram Khakrizwal said.

    The blast occurred in the caf toilet, said the owner of the caf, adding that he thought it was a suicide attack.

    Violence has swept Afghanistan with the coming of spring, especially in the south and southeast provinces, which were still controlled by the ousted Taliban which was toppled in late 2001.

    There was a car bombing in Kabul on April 24 in a residential neighborhood.

    Fierce fights between suspected Taliban rebels and US and Afghan troops caused the death of about 70 people in southern Afghanistan earlier this week. Enditem
