?: britannica and many other pages give April 27 as death date --Ktotam 23:30, 12 Dec 2003 (UTC)

28th is from the Library of Congress country study. It says:

"On April 27, 1978, a coup d'état beginning with troop movements at the military base at Kabul International Airport, gained ground slowly over the next twenty-four hours as rebels battled units loyal to Daoud in and around the capital. Daoud and most of his family were shot in the presidential palace the following day. Two hundred and thirty-one years of royal rule by Ahmad Shah and his descendants had ended, but it was less clear what kind of regime had succeeded them."

Afghanistani

This has been covered in numerous other articles. "Afghan" is the correct term for things or people relating to Afghanistan. Further insertion of "Afghanistani" will be considered vandalism. --Khampalak 18:39, 24 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]
