在阿富汗東部自殺爆炸手炸死5名警察

阿富汗官員說，一組自殺爆炸手襲擊了東部城市賈拉拉巴德的一處警方設(shè)施，造成至少五名警察死亡。

阿富汗警方說，一名襲擊者星期二凌晨在該警方設(shè)施入口處引爆了汽車炸彈，隨后至少另兩名襲擊者在這一設(shè)施內(nèi)引爆了身上的炸彈。襲擊者與警察發(fā)生一小時槍戰(zhàn)，幾名激進(jìn)分子被擊斃。

塔利班立即宣稱對這起襲擊負(fù)責(zé)。這次襲擊還造成至少四人受傷。

在發(fā)生這起襲擊事件之際，美國國務(wù)卿克里對阿富汗進(jìn)行一次短暫訪問。星期一，克里在喀布爾會晤了阿富汗總統(tǒng)卡爾扎伊。預(yù)計，克里在星期二離開阿富汗之前還將舉行一系列私下會談。

Afghan officials say a group of suicide bombers has attacked a police base in the eastern city of Jalalabad, killing at least five officers.

Police say one of the attackers set off a car bomb early Tuesday at the entrance to the police headquarters. At least two others then blew themselves up inside the facility. Several others militants were killed in an hour-long gun battle with police.

The Taliban immediately claimed responsibility for the attack, which also left at least four others wounded.

The attack came as U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry made a brief visit to the country. Kerry met with President Hamid Karzai in Kabul Monday. He is expected to hold a series of private meetings before leaving Tuesday.
