A suicide attack targeting a military academy killed at least five people in the Afghan capital
Kabul early Tuesday, in what was the first major assault in the city in months.
A witness near the scene in western Kabul said the blast happened near the Marshal Fahim military academy, where security officers are trained in the country.
In recent weeks the
Taliban have refrained from attacking major urban centres in an effort to keep talks with the US on track, though violence in the provinces has continued.
