6 Italian troops, 10 civilians killed in Kabul Blast; 50 Wounded
Guerrillas attacked an Italian convoy in Kabul on Thursday, killing 6 Italian troops and 10 Afghan civilians, and wounding over 50 others.
Italian PM Silvio Berlusconi as a result called for foreign troops to depart Afghanistan sooner rather than later. It had already been decided that 500 of Italy's 3000-strong military mission would soon go home.

You wrote "Guerrillas" attacked an Italian convoy in Kabul. Please define "guerrillas." Also, please explain what an Italian convoy was doing in someone else's country. Thank you.
Photographs of the attack were posted last night to some of the forums through which the "original" Afghan Taliban and its allies issue statements. It appeared to be a very big bombing.
