The Japanese embassy in Kabul came under attack Sunday as explosions and gunfire rocked the Afghan capital. Suicide bombers struck across Afghanistan in coordinated attacks claimed by Taliban insurgents as the start of a spring offensive.
The Japanese, U.S., British and German embassy compounds were hit as militants attacked the city's diplomatic enclave and tried to storm parliament, sparking a gun battle as lawmakers and bodyguards fired back from the rooftop.
