Kabul attack: Taliban kill 95 with ambulance bomb in Afghan capital
27 January 2018
A suicide bombing has killed at least 95 people and injured 158 others in the centre of Afghanistan's capital, Kabul, officials say.
Attackers drove an ambulance laden with explosives past a police checkpoint into a street that was only open to government workers.
It happened near the old interior ministry building and offices of the European Union and High Peace Council.
The Taliban have said they carried out the attack, the deadliest for months.
