KABUL -- An explosion wounded six people in the Afghan capital and revealed what international peacekeepers described yesterday as a clandestine bomb factory, officials said. Police who joined NATO troops in investigating the blast, which happened Saturday in a residential compound in west Kabul, arrested three men, said Commander Chris Henderson, the peacekeepers’ spokesman. A police official identified one man as Mohammed Hakim, the owner of the house. But it was not clear the men had links to militant groups. (AP)
