Laura Bush makes surprise Afghanistan visit
US First lady Laura Bush, on a mission to highlight signs of rebirth in war-weary Afghanistan, ventured outside of Kabul today to an area that symbolises both the destruction of war and Afghanistan’s attempt at rebirth.
Mrs Bush, on her third unannounced visit to the country, flew into the Afghan capital then immediately boarded a helicopter for a 50-minute flight to Bamiyan province, the farthest she has travelled from Kabul.
