Insurgent Attacks Kill 11 Afghan Police, District Chief VOA News 11 July 2010 Officials in northern Afghanistan say insurgents have killed 11 Afghan policemen and a district governor during attacks in the once-calm region. Authorities said Sunday that at least six border police officers died late Saturday when Taliban militants stormed a police post in (the Imam Saheb district of) northern Kunduz province. In a neighboring area of Kunduz, attackers used a remote-controlled bomb to kill the governor of the Qal'ah-e Zal district on Saturday. In another northern province, Badakhshan, a roadside bomb struck an Afghan police patrol, killing five officers.   NATO also announced Sunday that a joint force of international and Afghan troops killed several insurgents and detained two others Saturday while pursuing a Taliban commander affiliated with al-Qaida in eastern Ghazni province. NATO also said a separate force of Afghan troops killed two insurgents during an operation targeting two Taliban commanders in southern Kandahar province. NATO said six American service members were killed in east Afghanistan Saturday. Four of the Americans died in separate incidents in the east involving small arms fire and an insurgent attack. The other two died in separate roadside bombings in the south. Insurgent attacks have intensified across Afghanistan as international forces step up raids to root out Taliban militants. Last month was the deadliest for foreign troops, with 102 deaths.
