Afghan gunfight: Explosions and firing rock Kabul
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-south-asia-14897358
<snip>
A suicide bomb and gun attack is ongoing in the centre of the Afghan capital Kabul, with a string of blasts targeting the US embassy and Nato's Isaf headquarters.

Gunmen are holed up in a partly-built high-rise building nearby, exchanging sporadic gunfire with police.

The Taliban says it is behind the attack.

Very strange coverage on BBC International - you'd think they'd have more information
