Kabul: At least 30 people were killed as three blasts rocked close to Sayed-ul-Shuhada High School in west of Kabul on Saturday, media reports said.

According to the Ministry of Interior, at least 30 people were killed and 52 more were wounded in the blasts, reports Tolo News.

The attack started with a car bomb explosion and was followed by two rocket attacks as sources explained to the Afghanistan news channel.
