Taliban attack launch of Karzai's Afghan peace bid | Reuters

(Reuters) - Taliban suicide commandos attacked a huge gathering of Afghan leaders and notables on Wednesday as President Hamid Karzai launched an ambitious peace plan he hopes will persuade the insurgents to lay down their arms.

"The situation is under control," Farooq Wardak, the chief organizer of the jirga, told delegates, but sporadic firing could still be heard hours after the initial attack. He said two gunmen had been killed and one arrested. Taliban attack launch of Karzai's Afghan peace bid Reuters
