A suicide bomber has blown himself up inside a Shia mosque in the Afghan capital Kabul, killing at least 27 people and wounding dozens of others.
The explosion happened at the Baqer-ul-uloom mosque in the Darul Aman area as people gathered to mark the end of an important religious period.
Kabul police chief Abdul Rahman Rahimi told Al Jazeera 27 people were killed and many others wounded, and the death toll was likely to rise.
