US general killed in 'green on blue' shooting in Kabul

摘要

A suspected 'green on blue' or insider shooting at the main Afghan training facility has killed the highest-ranking US officer to die during operations since the Vietnam War and injured other high-ranking officers. The attack, in which at least 15 other International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and Afghan personnel were wounded, took place at the Marshal Fahim National Defense University in Kabul, the centralised training facility for the Afghan National Security Forces (ANSF), just after midday on 5 August.
