Afghanistan presidential palace in rocket attack

A rocket struck the presidential palace in Kabul this morning and a second hit the Afghan capital's police headquarters, just two days before a presidential election that the Taleban has vowed to disrupt. - No one was hurt in either attack, but the first rocket caused some damage inside the heavily fortified palace compound in the city centre where President Hamid Karzai lives with his family.
