Afghanistan police prepare for August elections

Violence is peaking in Afghanistan as the central Asian country approaches its Presidential elections.  The Afghan army reported it killed 23 Taliban fighters earlier this week during combats in Uruzgan province, while battles continue to take place in several parts of the country.

Concerned about this violence, the Afghan government has decided to train 35 thousand police to maintain security during the August 20th elections.  These will be only the second presidential elections in Afghanistan's turbulent history. Zubair Babakarkhail reports from Kabul.
