KABUL, Afghanistan - Afghan and ISAF emergency ordnance disposal teams destroyed two Soviet-era surface to air missiles at a munitions range near Bagram Airfield Friday and Saturday.

The rockets, discovered in Kabul late December, could not safely be destroyed in the city as each contained warheads with 195 kilograms of high explosives.
