Kabul, Afghanistan, Rajab 29, 1434, Jun 8, 2013, SPA - An attacker lobbed explosives into an armored vehicle in western Afghanistan on Saturday, killing one Italian soldier and wounding three others, Italy's government said. The Defense Ministry said the attack in Farah province came as the Italian soldiers were returning to their base from training Afghan security forces, according to a report of the Associated Press. The Taliban quickly took responsibility for the attack, with spokesman Qari Yousef Ahmadi claiming that the attacker was an 11-year-old boy. But Farah province provincial government spokesman Abdul Rahman Zhawandai says an adult man was seen throwing a grenade, then escaping by blending into the crowd at a nearby vegetable market. --SPA 14:39 LOCAL TIME 11:39 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/1118238
