Car bomb hits hospital in Afghanistan

A deadly car bomb has hit a hospital in Afghanistan's eastern Logar province, with women, children and elderly among the casualties.



The provincial health director told the BBC that 27 people had died and 53 were hurt, adding that the toll could have been higher as many people took away the bodies of relatives.



The facility was destroyed and people were buried under rubble.Officials blamed the Azra district bomb on the Taliban, but they denied it.
