Afghan suicide mosque attacks kill dozens of worshippers

At least 40 people have been killed in two separate attacks on Shia Muslim mosques in Afghanistan, officials say.

A gunman entered the Imam Zaman mosque in the capital Kabul before opening fire and detonating an explosive, killing more than 30 worshippers.

A second attack in Afghanistan's Ghor province killed at least 10 people.

No group has so far said it carried out the attacks, but so-called Islamic State (IS) has previously targeted Shia mosques across Afghanistan.
