17 Killed in Afghan Attacks
---------------------------



In Afghanistan, at least seventeen people have been killed in a series
of coordinated suicide bombings in the capital Kabul. The first attack
hit Kabul’s main shopping center. Gunfire and two smaller explosions
followed minutes later. Another thirty-two people were reported wounded.
The Taliban has claimed responsibility for the attack, one of the
deadliest to hit Kabul in the past year.
