KABUL, Feb 27 (Reuters) - A number of foreign soldiers were wounded in a suicide bomb attack on Tuesday outside a U.S. base in Afghanistan as Vice President Dick Cheney was visiting, the U.S. military said, but there were no details on nationality. The spokesman had no word of foreign deaths. The blast killed up to 20 people outside the main gates of Bagram airbase, north of Kabul. Although most soldiers at Bagram are American, troops from NATO and coalition allies also serve on various bases. The spokesman had no word on the number of injured or the extent of injuries.
