More than a dozen Afghan soldiers have been arrested on suspicion of plotting a major attack inside the Afghan Defense Ministry in Kabul. The Defense Ministry was placed under lockdown on Tuesday after suicide vests were found inside its fortified compound. The arrests follow a spate of attacks by Afghan soldiers against members of the U.S.-led NATO occupation force. Afghan troops have been responsible for one-third of all U.S. troop deaths in Afghanistan this year.
