[Al Arabiya Latest] United Nations chief Ban Ki-moon late Thursday warned that the world body was vulnerable to more attacks in the week leading up to the Afghan elections and pleaded for more help to protect his staff.
"We cannot do it alone," the secretary general told a crisis meeting of the U.N. Security Council following Wednesday's suicide attack by Taliban fighters on a U.N. guesthouse in Kabul that killed five U.N. staffers and wounded nine.
"We need the support of the member states," he told diplomats from the world's most powerful countries.
