   Officials in eastern Afghanistan say a bomb planted on a minibus has
   exploded, killing three policemen and wounding six others.
   The blast happened Thursday in Jalalabad as the bus was traveling to a
   police training facility.
   No group has claimed responsibility for the attack.
   Also in the east, NATO said a roadside bombing killed one of its
   service members on Wednesday. It did not give the exact location of the
   attack or the service member's nationality.
   NATO said Afghan and coalition forces killed 17 insurgents Wednesday
   while searching for an al-Qaida leader in Kunar province. It said
   during the operation security forces returned fire at a group of people
   standing in a doorway, killing one of the insurgents and "two women he
   was hiding behind."
