A truck bomb ripped through the main security gate of a U.S. military base in eastern Afghanistan on Thursday, killing at least two local guards and injuring nine others, the International Security Assistance Force said.
The Taliban claimed responsibility for the suicide attack against the base in Gardez, the provincial capital of Paktia province.
