Afghan policeman fires on NATO forces, no deaths
Associated Press – 3 hrs ago
KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) — Authorities say an Afghan policeman has opened fire on NATO forcesand Afghan soldiers. The shooting is the fifth apparent attack in a week by Afghan security forces on their international partners.
The international military coalition says none of its service members were killed in Monday’s attack.
NATO spokesman Charlie Stadtlander says an initial investigation indicates the attacker was anAfghan police officer. He says the shooter escaped.
A Taliban spokesman claimed responsibility for the shooting and said three Americans died in it. The insurgents often exaggerate their assaults’ success.
At least seven American service members have been killed in the past week by either their Afghan counterparts or attackers wearing their uniforms.
The rise in “green-on-blue” attacks raises questions about the Afghan security forces as international forces withdraw.
