Taliban truck bomb hits government offices in southern Afghanistan, wounds dozens
A Taliban suicide bomber in a truck loaded with explosives struck a provincial government neighbourhood in Zabul in southern Afghanistan on Monday, wounding nearly 70 people, officials said.
The Afghan Taliban, ousted from power by a US-led coalition in 2001, claimed responsibility for the attack in Qalat city, the latest in a series following the withdrawal of most foreign troops from the country.
