[]
Afghanistan says at least 18 people - including 14 foreign nationals - were killed in an attack on Kabul's Intercontinental hotel. The death toll may rise further. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.
Afghan Special Forces ended the overnight siege on Sunday, killing all the gunmen. Earlier this week, the US embassy in Afghanistan warned that militants may target hotels in the capital.
