Large blast heard in Afghan capital near embassies
2009-08-15
A large blast ripped through the centre of Afghanistan's capital Kabul on Saturday, Reuters witnesses said, and smoke could be seen rising above the city's diplomatic quarter.

The blast comes just five days ahead of presidential elections and against a backdrop of increased violence by the Taliban. More than 100,000 foreign troops are based in the country.
