Events at a Glance

MILITARY FRONT

U.S. forces have bombed some sites in Afghanistan that could have been involved in producing chemical, biological or radiological weapons, Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said.

POLITICS

Though welcoming the latest advances by the Northern Alliance, notably the capture of the strategic city of Mazar-i-Sharif, Pakistani President Pervez Musharraf warned of atrocities and anarchy if the rebels seize Kabul.

ANTHRAX

Osama bin Laden said that he had nothing to do with the anthrax attacks in the U.S. and that he will never let himself be captured.

Decontamination crews cleaned a post office in the Trenton, N.J., area because anthrax tests at the facility were inconclusive. The U.S. Postal Service wanted to take advantage of the long Veterans Day holiday weekend to clean the facility as a precaution.

PROTEST

About 200 people rallied in Atlanta against CNN’s coverage of the war. Three were arrested. “CNN, half the story, all the time,” they chanted, saying that millions in Afghanistan face starvation but that the cable outlet isn’t telling the story.

DIPLOMACY

In a Veterans Day tribute, President Bush toured the World Trade Center’s smoking rubble and called on the country to remember “the terrible harm that an enemy can inflict.”
