| Rockets hit Peshawar |
| 2008-02-26 |
| Suspected militants fired two rockets in the city of Peshawar, damaging cars and narrowly missing the airport, police said on Monday. “Two rockets were fired by some unknown miscreants,” senior police official Muhammad Tahir Khan told AFP. Peshawar residents said they heard loud noises when the rockets exploded late on Sunday, one in the garrison city’s commercial area and another in suburban Pushtakhara, which is close to the airport and also houses a key airforce base. Khan said no one was hurt in the attacks. An AFP reporter saw up to 10 damaged cars, which were parked at a repair shop in the commercial neighbourhood when a rocket landed on the roof. |
