Spin Boldak, Afghanistan, Jan 18 (SPA) -- A Taliban commander said on Tuesday hundreds of his fighters were ready to launch suicide attacks across Afghanistan to drive out foreign forces. This threat came as several thousand people gathered in the town of Spin Boldak, on the border with Pakistan, to denounce a suicide attack there on Monday that killed 23. "Hundreds of Afghan Taliban mujahideen are ready for suicide attacks," said the Taliban commander, Mullah Dadullah. "They only await orders from the Taliban leadership," he said by satellite telephone from an undisclosed location. Afghanistan has seen a wave of 19 suicide attacks in the past year, including 13 in the past 10 weeks, the United Nations was quoted as saying by Reuters. --SPA 14 03 Local Time 11 03 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/319641
