Bagram Airbase occupied by US Forces in Afghanistan attacked by suicide bomber

KABUL: A suicide bomber detonated his explosives at one of the entrances to the airbase in Parwan, which is just north of Kabul. 

A suicide bomber reportedly detonated his explosives at the southern gate of Bagram Airbase in Parwan province on Wednesday evening. 

No details on casualties have been released but eyewitnesses report a number of people were wounded. 

This comes just hours after a senior US commander in Afghanistan apologized on Wednesday for a “highly offensive” propaganda leaflet that had been distributed by US forces in Parwan, just north of Kabul, on Tuesday.
