More bombs as kidnappers demand Italy quit Afghanistan
A suicide bomber killed several Afghan civilians and wounded British soldiers when he attacked a military convoy in the troubled south on Thursday, witnesses and an Afghan army officer said.
Bodies of civilians, some with arms and legs blown off, were scattered around the scene and a NATO vehicle was ablaze after the blast in Lashkar Gah, capital of Helmand province — a Taliban stronghold — witnesses said.

Italian photojournalist Gabriele Torsello (www.kashgt.co.uk) was kidnapped last week from a bus on his way from Lashkar Gah to neighboring Kandahar, the birthplace of the Taliban.
In a call to an Italian-run hospital in Helmand, his kidnappers have demanded Italy surrender an Afghan granted asylum after he was prosecuted in Kabul this year for converting to Christianity from Islam 16 years ago.
