ShareKANDAHAR, Afghanistan - A suicide squad detonated bombs at a newly fortified prison, police headquarters and two other locations late yesterday, killing at least 30 people in the largest city of the southern Taliban heartland.
The prison was the main target, but no prisoners escaped, Afghan President Hamid Karzai’s half-brother said. Ahmed Wali Karzai, a member of the Kandahar provincial council, said two of the explosions occurred near his home, which was not damaged.
