First up today, we're talking about violence in Afghanistan. Suicide bombings, three of them, all of them targeting a U.S-Afghan base in the eastern part of the country. Officials say at least 3 Afghan soldiers and 2 civilians 1 were killed. The Taliban, the militant 2 group that used to control most of Afghanistan says it's responsible for these attacks. They happened early Sunday morning before sunrise. Afghan authorities say all nine of the attackers were killed either in the bombings or in the firefight with U.S and Afghan troops that happened afterward 3. This isn't the first time that the base has been targeted by suicide bombings. It's located in a region that's home to a lot of insurgent 4 activity.
Next up today, we're looking at the political unrest in Egypt. An Elected Assembly has drafted a new constitution, but only after more moderate members of that Assembly left, complaining they weren't being hurt. On Saturday the Assembly turned over the draft to president Mohammed Morsi, and that's him on the right. He said there will be a referendum, a vote on December 15th. After that announcement, protests broke out. Some from people who support president Morsi, some from people who think he is trying to give himself too much power. Egypt's Supreme 5 Court was planning to review the consitution, but some of Morsi's supporters gathered outside the court building. The court canceled its sessions indefinitely, it says judges won't go back to work until they can do their jobs without, quote, "any psychological or physical pressures".
