Attack on consulate in Afghanistan
KABUL: Gunmen armed with heavy weapons including rocket propelled grenades on Friday attacked the Indian Consulate in Afghanistan's Herat province during which three attackers were killed, top Indian officials said.
However, TV reports further claimed that the fourth gunman has also been killed by the security forces.
All the diplomatic staff were safe. Three gunmen were killed, one by ITBP (Indo-Tibetan Border Police) and two by Afghan police, out of four attackers who struck the Consulate which houses two buildings, Indian Ambassador to Afghanistan Amar Sinha said.
PM-designate Narendra Modi spoke to Amar Sinha and assured all help. According to TV reports, Afghan President Hamid Karzai will call Modi later to brief him about the attack.

Earlier Indian missions at Kabul and Jalalabad had been under attack. Always convenient for India to blame ISI for these.But in the first place, why does India need to have so many missions in a war torn nation?
