Afghans Don't Like UN, Either

Aparently Afghan students aren't too happy about UN efforts to rebuild lives in Afghanistan. From today's UN press briefing:

Spokesperson: Turning to Afghanistan, the UN Mission in Afghanistan reports that a student demonstration in Jalalabad, in the country’s south, turned violent, with demonstrators throwing stones and, at one point, setting on fire a guard post outside the UN compound in that city. An explosive device was also thrown into the compound.

No UN staff members were hurt, although some vehicles inside the compound were damaged by the stone-throwing and the explosive device. The crowd has since dispersed, and the situation in Jalalabad is described as calm.
