Death toll from Afghan blast reaches 48

KABUL - The death toll from a suicide blast at an educational center in a mainly Shi'ite area of the Afghan capital on Wednesday reached 48, with another 67 wounded, the health ministry said.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility for the blast, which came after several weeks of relative calm in Kabul but previous attacks on Shi'ite targets in the area have been claimed by Islamic State.
