Foreign tourists attacked in Afghanistan - BBC News
Suspected militants have attacked a convoy carrying foreign tourists in western Afghanistan, injuring six.

Afghan officials told the BBC a group of a dozen travellers were escorted by Afghan army personnel on their way to Herat city when they were ambushed.

Jailani Farhad, spokesman for Herat's governor, told the BBC the tourists included eight Britons, three US citizens and one German.
