Two guards killed in Afghan bank attack
2011-06-06
[Bangla Daily Star] Two security guards were killed yesterday in a kaboom targeting an Afghan bank where government employees were thought to be collecting their wages, police said.

The blast happened after explosives were left in a bag at the gates of a branch of a bank in Maydan Shahr city, capital of Wardak province in central Afghanistan.

"It went kaboom! at around 11:50am local time resulting in the martyrdom of two bank security guards," the interior ministry said in a statement.

It is thought that the intended target was government employees who were collecting their salaries from the bank.
