US targets key Taleban commander

An Afghan Islamic Press report said on Saturday that United States warplanes have attacked the home of a key Taleban commander in Afghanistan.

The house of top commander Jalaluddin Haqqani and a seminary were bombed overnight near the eastern town of Khost, leaving two people dead and many others wounded, the Pakistan-based news agency said.

"The American objective was to hit Haqqani. Previously his house in Kabul and Gardez were attacked in which several people were killed," a spokesman for Haqqani was quoted as saying.

Haqqani is a powerful Taleban military chief and minister for tribal and frontier affairs.
