Rocket hits outside luxury hotel in Afghan capital

KABUL -- A rocket hit outside the luxury Serena Hotel in Afghanistan's capital late Saturday, wounding at least two, the Interior Ministry said.

An Associated Press reporter at the scene saw police searching through rubble along the wall of the hotel's compound, apparently the impact point.

The area was blocked off by dozens of police and army officers. The sound of wailing ambulance sirens came from many directions.

The rocket wounded two people, Interior Ministry spokesman Zemeri Bashary told The AP. He said he had no reports of deaths and did not say how serious the injuries were.
