Afghan Sucide Attack

A suicide attacker targeting a prominent Afghan MP killed three people including a child and wounded seven others in Kabul on Sunday, officials said, just days after Washington announced it would slow the withdrawal of US troops from Afghanistan.

An Afghan official says a gunman on a motorcycle opened fire at a group of local cricket players, killing five of them during a game in eastern Laghman province.

Gunmen dressed in Afghan police uniforms and wearing suicide vests stormed a government compound on Thursday, killing seven people and wounding 12 others in the southwest, police said.
