Twenty Taliban suicide bombers Wednesday launched an attack on the main military base of Bagram, 50 km north of Kabul, the capital city of Afghanistan, a Taliban spokesman said.

Local media reported that the clash between the militants and the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force started at around 05:00 p.m. local time and was going on at the moment, leaving seven militants killed.
