KABUL—The death toll from a bomb attack outside a school in the Afghan capital of Kabul has risen to 68, officials said on May 9, with doctors struggling to care for 165 injured victims and families searching desperately for missing children.
Explosions on the evening of May 8 shook the neighborhood of Dasht-e-Barchi, home to a large community of Shi'ites from the Hazara ethnic minority, which has been targeted in the past by the ISIS teorrist group.
