                        Insurgents Attack Kabul Airport

   by VOA News

   Afghan officials say security forces have killed three of at least five
   insurgents who attacked Kabul's main airport early Monday.
   Authorities say the attack began before dawn with explosions and
   gunfire focused on the military side of the facility.
   Militants then occupied a nearby building under construction and were
   firing toward the airport, which serves as a base for coalition
   forces.  Civilian flights were halted because of the violence.
   The Taliban has claimed responsibility for the attack.
