Twin blasts hit Afghan parliament, casualties feared

Twin explosions were detonated near the Afghan parliament in Kabul today, the interior ministry says, with casualties feared in the latest attack to rock the Afghan capital.

At least one of the blasts was apparently caused by a car bomb, ministry spokesman Sediq Sediqqi says.

“They targeted employees of parliament, there have been casualties,” a second security source says.
