Reports from New Delhi say Babrak Karmal, the Soviet backed leader of Afghanistan, was stopped by his security guards from self harm last Friday. The claim, not independently confirmed, cites Russian staff in Kabul and unverified diplomatic sources. An insurgent group claims a Soviet armored column broke an ambush in the Sultani Valley near the Afghan Pakistan border, with 25 insurgents killed and numerous Soviet or pro government forces wounded or killed.
