Kabul explosions: three die in rocket attacks on Afghan capital

Explosions come ahead of separate scheduled meetings between Mike Pompeo, Taliban and Afghan government officials in Doha

At least three people have been killed in a series of loud explosions that shook central Kabul, including several rockets that landed near the heavily fortified Green Zone where many embassies and international firms are based, officials said.

Saturday's explosions occurred in densely populated parts of the Afghan capital, marking the latest attack in an ongoing wave of violence sweeping Kabul.
