Bomb hits Kabul taxi as Afghan violence kills 10

A roadside bomb along a busy Kabul road killed two Afghans today as fighting in the eastern provinces left a US-led coalition soldier and seven suspected Taliban dead, officials said.

The bomb in Kabul – the latest in a series of blasts that have rattled nerves in the capital – killed a man and a woman travelling in a taxi, and wounded four others, said Faiz Ahmad Hotaq, a police official.
