Academics Continue To Suffer In Kabul

At least one person is dead and 24 others are wounded after militants attacked the American University of Afghanistan in Kabul. Witnesses described a horrific scene in which attackers trapped students and staff in their classrooms before using explosions and automatic gunfire. So far, no group has claimed responsibility, but academia has become a more frequent target. This attack comes just weeks after two university professors were kidnapped at gunpoint nearby. Their whereabouts are still unknown.
