Minister experiences rocket attack

Two rockets targeting a Canadian base in Afghanistan whizzed overhead Tuesday, one exploding near Canadian Defence Minister Peter MacKay.
MacKay was unharmed, but four soldiers reportedly suffered minor injuries when the second rocket slammed Forward Operating Base Wilson.
"During routine interviews, rockets went overhead and you could tell by the piercing whistle ... it was very, very close," the CBC's Carolyn Dunn reported from Afghanistan.
The Canadian Press reported that a rocket landed about 50 metres from where reporters and some soldiers were. The second attack occurred about 15 minutes later, the news agency reported.
At the time, MacKay had been holding closed-door meetings in a separate building from the media.
