A former senior CIA officer who was stationed at the base said a combination of agency officers and contractors operated out of the remote outpost with the military and other agencies.
The CIA has not yet commented or confirmed the deaths.
The congressional official said it was not clear how many of the victims were assigned to the CIA.

U.S. officials said the attack occurred at Forward Operating Base Chapman in Khost province, killing eight American civilians and wounding others."

Another attack on a US military base, this one in Afghanistan by a suicide bomber who claimed 8 civilian lives today but no military personnel which was most likely not his intent.
So the new millennium Muslim Reign Of Terror continues practically unabated around the world, that is were it not for our brave military men and women over there, for the most part thanklessly fighting for their freedom from Islamic tyranny with very little noteworthy help from anyone in the direct neighborhood of this partially failed state we're rebuilding and destroying at the same time.
This is how they're paid back along with the almost always innocent civilian victims of the Jihadder's Cowardly indiscriminate suicide bombings.
8 Americans reported killed in Afghanistan - Afghanistan- msnbc.com: "KABUL - All of the eight Americans killed by a suicide bomber in Afghanistan Wednesday were civilians, and no U.S. or NATO troops were injured in the blast, a U.S. defense official said.
The attack took place at Forward Operating Base Chapman in Khost province, in eastern Afghanistan, said the official, who declined to be named. The New York Times was reporting that the bomber managed to elude security and reach the base's gym."
