Afghanistan: Gunmen kill at least 10 students in attack on Kabul university

CNN  

Gunmen stormed Kabul University, killing students in their classrooms and firing on others as they fled on Monday, in the second attack on an educational institution in the city in just over a week, officials and witnesses said. The three attackers killed at least 19 people including students before Afghan security forces shot the gunmen dead, authorities said. “They were shooting at every student they saw … they even shot at the students who were running away,” witness Fathullah Moradi told Reuters. “This is the second attack on educational institutions in Kabul … Afghan children & youth need to feel safe going to school,” NATO Senior Civilian Representative to Afghanistan Stefano Pontecorvo said in a statement.
