KANDAHAR CITY (Pajhwok): A parliamentary commission on Wednesday said “a lack of coordination among security organs, negligence and illegal business activities paved the way for a daylong Taliban attack" that killed 50 people at the airport in southern Kandahar province a week back.

The brazen attack that began on Tuesday ended after 20 hours late on Wednesday when all the 11 attackers were killed. The attackers were laced with suicide vests, hand grenades and guns, killing 50 people, including 38 civilians, 10 Afghan soldiers and two police.
