Suicide bomber strikes government target in Kabul
A suicide bomber has killed at least seven people and wounded 15 others after detonating an explosive vest in Kabul. A police spokesman said Sunday that the attacker struck on foot outside a government facility. The death toll likely will rise, officials said.

Last month a suicide bomber struck near the same building, killing 12 people and wounding 31 others.
