The Taliban attacked a NATO base located on an airfield in Jalalabad, the capital of Nangarhar province, the Al Arabiya satellite TV channel reports today. According to the Al Arabiya, the militants launched eight missiles against the base. There is no information about the casualties.

On 9 June, the Taliban militants attacked a rear base of the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) in Jalalabad killing four people. On that day, a suicide bomber exploded a car bomb at the gate to a group of buildings, after which two gunmen broke through onto a guarded area and opened fire, reports ITAT-TASS.
All the attackers were eliminated. During the raid the terrorists destroyed at least 25 trucks. There were no ISAF servicemen on the grounds at that time.
