The remains of a small general store largely destroyed in the early hours of this day when a car bomb destroyed a neighbouring Afghan National Security Forces base by the gate that divides Kabul and Wardak provinces. Officials said 2 members of the security forces were killed but local business owners said the area was "covered with bodies" after the explosion. Gridlock is a daily feature of the same stretch of road at the entrance to Kabul. Trucks drivers queuing there complained of the insecurity on the road and its deteriorating condition, caused in large part by fighting between government and Taliban forces and, more specifically, by the Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) that the Taliban use to target their government enemies on the highway. In Wardak, the highway is littered with gaping craters caused by the IEDs, which, in turn, prolonging the journeys of commercial truck drivers and regular motorists alike. Truck drivers also complain of the numerous toll points along the highway from Helmand to Wardak. Perhaps surprisingly, most of the illegal toll-points are manned by government security forces rather than the Taliban.
