Militants storm aid group office

Four gunmen stormed an office of the Save the Children aid agency in the city of Jalalabad on Wednesday and battled security forces who surrounded the building, killing at least two people and wounding 14, officials said. The attack began with a suicide car bomb outside the office, followed by gunmen entering the compound and fighting Afghan special forces, a spokesman for the government in the eastern province said.
