      At least four Afghan troops were killed and three were wounded as a Taliban suicide car bomber hit an Afghan special forces base in southern Kabul on Thursday.

      Footage shows the burnt remains of the vehicle which was used to carry out the attack and Afghan police forces patrolling the area in the Chahar Asyab district.

      The blast, which comes less than a week after US President Donald Trump called off the US-Taliban peace talks aimed at ending the 18-year old war in the country, was claimed in a statement by Taliban spokesman Zabihullah Mujahid.
