One person was killed and three others wounded when insurgents fired four rockets into Kabul from a semi-agricultural part of the city, Afghan officials said. The casualties occurred when one of the rockets hit a taxi, the New York Times reported. The other explosives hit the grounds of a television station and the international airport, said Kabul police spokesman Hashmat Stanakzai. The rockets were fired remotely by cell phone about 6:40 a.m. from a vegetable garden about two miles northeast of the airport, Stanakzai said. An unfired rocket round was found in the garden, he added. An official at the Kabul airport said two rockets landed in "very sensitive" areas of the airport, but there was no damage and no flights were affected. A fourth rocket landed in the Shamshad Television compound, causing minor damage to a war artifacts museum, said Fazal Karim, the head of the station.
