Explosions rock British Council in Afghan capital

[Ringel05]

Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) -- Explosions and heavy automatic gunfire were heard hours after five well-armed suicide bombers attacked the British Council in the Afghan capital on Friday, leaving at least eight people dead, officials said.

White smoke billowed from a building in the compound while heavily-armed British and Afghan forces cordoned off the area in the center of the capital, establishing a security perimeter around the buildings.

It seems that the Taliban attackers got through security checkpoints by wearing burkas and posing as a family.

Intelligence and police sources told me that the attackers, wearing burkas and posing as a family, managed to get through security checkpoints in the early hours of morning. Intelligence officials say they informed police that suicide attackers intended to attack Kabul.

Yet another demonstration of why banning the burka in western countries is a good thing!
