U.N. staff traumatized

KABUL — Traumatized U.N. staff in Afghanistan were under orders to stay home Thursday, one day after Taliban militants stormed a guest house in the capital and killed eight people. The attack underscored the risks facing U.N. and Afghan officials in organizing a runoff election following the fraud-marred first-round vote Aug. 20. A Taliban spokesman said the attack was aimed at undermining the Nov. 7 presidential election runoff.
