Suicide bomber kills 15 at Afghanistan election polling station

At least 15 people have been killed in a suicide bombing at a Kabul polling station during an Afghan parliamentary election rocked by violence.

Ten civilians and five policeman were killed, and more than 25 people injured, when a bomber tried to enter the school-based station – bringing the total reported killed or injured on election day to almost 170.

It was the biggest attack in a day of voting and a wider election – Afghanistan’s first since 2010 – marred by violence and unrest.
