Twin Suicide Bombings In Afghanistan Leave Dozens Dead, Scores Wounded

About 30 people have been killed in two bombings in the Afghan capital Kabul, including several journalists documenting the scene.

AFP chief photographer in Kabul, Shah Marai, is among the victims.

The first explosion was carried out by an attacker on a motorbike. A second followed about 15 minutes later after a crowd, including several reporters, had gathered at the scene.

The Islamic State group (IS) said it had carried out the attack.

BBC reporter Ahmad Shah was also killed in a separate attack on Monday in the Khost region
