Suicide bomber kills 20 students in Afghanistan

No fewer than 19 students were killed on Friday as a suicide bomber entered a classroom at Kaaj Higher Educational Centre in Kabul, the Afghan capital and detonated a bomb.

According to the police and witnesses, as reported by BBC, nearly 30 others were wounded in the school located in the Dasht-e-Barchi area where they were sitting for a practice university examination.

While no terrorist group has claimed responsibility for the attack, it was reported that many of the areas are minority Hazaras, who have been targeted by Islamic State (IS) militants and the Taliban.
