Afghanistan: 3 foreigners killed in Kabul attack
By RAHIM FAIEZ Associated Press
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) - Taliban suicide attackers killed the South African leader of a foreign aid group, his son and daughter and an Afghan worker in an assault on the agency's Kabul offices, authorities said Sunday, as the city's police chief resigned in the wake of the latest insurgent attack there.
Police chief Gen. Mohammed Zahir told reporters before his resignation that the attack Saturday actually killed four people, raising the death toll in the assault near the Afghan parliament. He offered no other details about the victims and did not name the aid group.
A Redlands, California-based group called Partnership in Academics and Development later posted a notice on its website saying several of its staffers died during an attack Saturday in Kabul.
"We are caring for all staff and their families as they grieve the loss of their friends and co-workers and nurse the wounded," the statement read. "Our thoughts are with the survivors and their families as they grieve the loss of life. Their selfless sacrifice for the people of Afghanistan is an inspiration to all."
A message left at a phone number listed for the group was not immediately returned Sunday. Clayson Monyela, a spokesman for South Africa's foreign affairs department, said Sunday that he had no information about the slain South Africans.
Saturday's attack saw three Taliban militants launch an assault on the office, with one exploding a suicide bomb vest and the two others later killed in a shootout with police, authorities said. At least one of the attackers wore a police uniform, Zahir said.
Police spokesman Hashmat Stanikzai later said Zahir had resigned his post, without providing further details.
Kabul has seen eight deadly suicide attacks against high-profile targets in the past 16 days, one of the most violent periods in the capital in years. In recent days, four foreigners - including an employee of the British embassy - have been killed, and dozens of Afghan civilians have been killed and wounded.
The attacks have raised concerns about whether Afghan security forces can protect the country after the U.S. and NATO officially conclude their 13-year combat mission on Dec. 31. They also show a reinvigorated Taliban insurgency taking advantage of the situation as well.

'Bird bomb' explodes when it's shot by Afghanistan police
KABUL, Afghanistan, Nov. 30 (UPI) -- Why did the brown and white bird walk down the road? Apparently to blow somebody up. That's what Afghanistan police surmised when they spotted the large, non-native bird walking along a highway with an antenna, explosives and an electronic device strapped to its body.
When police shot the bird, it exploded, scattering "suspicious metal stuff," provincial police chief Maj. Gen. Abdul Nabi Ilham told NBC News.
Police are still examining the various remains, but have identified what appears to be a GPS device and a small camera. The bird was first spotted close to a police checkpoint in Faryab province in the north where the Taliban are active.
Investigators speculated that the bird may have been "deployed" on a surveillance mission.
It's the first time ever security forces have encountered such a "bird bomb," though Hamas militants rigged a donkey with explosives and set it on a path heading toward Israeli soldiers during fighting in Gaza last summer. No humans were injured, but the donkey exploded.
