Around 200 Afghans joined a protest on the streets of Kabul Saturday against what Afghanistan says are Pakistani rocket attacks which have left dozens of people dead. Separately, the border police commander of eastern Afghanistan, General Aminullah Amarkhail, confirmed he submitted his resignation Thursday over the attacks.
A diplomatic spat has flared in recent days amid accusations over the rocket attacks which the Afghan government says could damage "improving trust and co-operation" between the two. Earlier this week, Afghan President Hamid Karzai met army General Ashfaq Kayani, in Kabul to demand an end to rocket attacks. Pakistan says its security forces may have fired a few accidental rounds into Afghanistan while pursuing militants. It also points out that insurgents from Afghanistan have crossed the border to attack security checkpoints.
