59 Dead In Afghan Shrine Blasts On Shiite Holy Day

Twin blasts at Afghan shrines on the Shiite holy day of Ashura left at least 59 people dead on Tuesday, with most killed in a massive suicide attack in Kabul which ripped through a crowd of worshippers.

The attack in the capital, which killed 55 and wounded 134, plus a second in the northern city of Mazar-i-Sharif came the day after an international meeting in Germany on the future of Afghanistan following 10 years of war.
