Iran, the United States, Moslem leaders and Western European communists joined a chorus denouncing Soviet intervention in Afghanistan after the coup that toppled Hafizullah Amin and installed Babrak Karmal. Analysts note about 10,000 Soviet troops, with Tass reporting the action as aid at Kabul. Carter called it a grave threat to peace.
