A
Taliban attack on a housing complex used by international organizations in the Afghan capital,
Kabul, late on Monday killed at least 16 people and angered local residents who demanded the heavily fortified compound be moved.
The blast, which shook buildings several kilometers away, happened just as Zalmay Khalilzad, the special U.S. envoy for peace in
Afghanistan, was outlining details of a draft accord with the insurgents in a television interview.
