The fighting began as sporadic gunfire, but intensified over time, lasting more than an hour. The attack took place in a relatively secure section of the capital, in the vicinity of a number of government buildings. The firefight, which included machine-gun fire and rocket-propelled grenades, appeared to be concentrated in one location. A plume of black smoke could be seen rising in the area." 1 2009-10-28T06:23:47Z 0 2009-11-05T16:45:44Z false 30461 false 21 2009-11-05T16:46:39Z Palo Alto, California true 2010-04-28T00:00:00Z false 3-un-staff-killed-in-kabul-firefight 1 2009-11-05T16:46:39Z 21
