Rockets fired at a U.S.-led coalition air base in southern Afghanistan damaged two British Harrier warplanes that were parked on the ground, a U.S military spokeswoman said Sunday. No one was wounded in Friday's attack on Kandahar Airfield, said U.S. military spokeswoman Sgt. Marina Evans. Shrapnel from the rockets slammed into the jets inflicting "some damage but nothing major," she said. Briton has six Harriers based at the airfield near Kandahar city, a former Taliban stronghold, The Associated Press reported.
