Deadly Grenade Attack on NATO Helicopter in Afghanistan

北约直升机在阿富汗遭致命榴弹攻击

NATO says insurgents in Afghanistan fired a rocket-propelled grenade at a military helicopter, killing one person and wounding eight others. The alliance says the Chinook helicopter had just landed at a base in Kunar province Tuesday when the attack took place. NATO says the aircraft was being off-loaded through the rear ramp, when insurgents fired the grenade into the cargo bay. The alliance says the attack killed an Afghan interpreter and wounded seven NATO service members and an Afghan border police officer.

北约表示，一架北约的军用直升机在阿富汗遭到反叛分子的火箭流弹攻击，造成一人死亡，八人受伤。北约说，星期二这架奇努克式直升机刚刚在库纳尔省的一个基地降落就受到攻击。北约说，反叛分子向直升机货舱发射流弹的时候，直升机正从机尾部卸货。联军说，这次攻击打死一名阿富汗翻译，打伤7名北约军人和一名阿富汗边防警察。

A man who claims to be a Taliban spokesman says Taliban fighters carried out the attack. NATO says 26 people were onboard the helicopter. The wounded were evacuated to a medical facility for treatment. Separately, NATO says one of its service members was killed Tuesday in a roadside bombing in southern Afghanistan.
