Kabul, Afghanistan: 43 Killed as Gunmen Storm Government Building
-----------------------------------------------------------------

In Kabul, Afghanistan, at least 43 people were killed Monday after a
team of gunmen stormed a government building and began moving floor to
floor to target employees. The assault began after a suicide car bomber
detonated outside the Public Works Ministry, ahead of a gun battle that
lasted for hours. No group has claimed responsibility for the attack,
which was one of the deadliest assaults on Kabul this year.
