STORYLINE:
In the biggest daylight raids so far, U-S jets attacked a military headquarters and suspected terrorist training camp near the eastern city of Jalalabad on Monday.
The raids followed earlier attacks on targets around the city on the weekend.
On Sunday, international journalists escorted to the city could hear explosions in the distance during the raids.
Taliban soldiers patrolled the streets with rocket launchers and assault rifles as the attack continued.
Each strike drew anti-aircraft fire from Taliban positions around the city.
A Taliban envoy accompanying the journalists claimed the fighters "just laugh at these bombs."
There was no immediate indication of casualties.
In Monday's strikes, U-S jets targeted a military base near Jalalabad's airport and a training camp at Tora-Bora.
Taliban officials said Osama bin Laden had used the camp in 1996.
U-S warplanes also struck near the village Karam, where the Taliban claims to 200 people were killed in air raids last week. The death toll cannot be independently verified.
