Gunmen seriously wounded an Afghan provincial councilwoman in a drive-by shooting early Monday in the country's north. Nida Khyani was struck by two bullets, including one that left a potentially life-threatening abdominal wound, said Salim Rasouli, head of the provincial health department. Khyani's bodyguard was also slightly injured in the attack in Pul-e Khumri, the capital of Baghlan province just north of Kabul, the Associated Press reported.
