Gunmen launched a pre-dawn raid on a military compound in Kabul on Monday, in an ongoing assault that has caused multiple casualties and is the third major attack in the city in recent days.

At least two soldiers have been killed and 10 wounded in a fierce gun battle with several attackers near the Marshal Fahim military academy, defence ministry spokesman Dawlat Waziri said.
