On 30th October, 2008 a suicide bomber strikes inside the Ministry of
Information and Culture in the Afghan capital, Kabul, causing widespread
damage and the death of at least five civilians. More were injured. Zabiullah Mujahid, a Taliban spokesman, said three fighters stormed the building by throwing hand grenades at the guards at the main gate.
A security guard near the building, said the bomber shot two policemen outside the ministry building before entering the large conference hall inside where he blew himself up.
The resurgent Taleban were quick to claim responsibility for the attack. Our correspondent Gianluca Grossi was on the scene. He exclusively reports from a city gripped by fear and uncertainty.
