Warlord marches into Afghan city
Forces of a northern strongman overran the capital of a remote Afghan province today in a burst of factional violence undermining the authority of US-backed President Hamid Karzai.
Troops loyal to ethnic Uzbek warlord Abdul Rashid Dostum swept into Maymana, the centre of Faryab province, about 260 miles northwest of Kabul, today, Interior Minister Ali Ahmad Jalali said in Kabul.
