More than 100 Afghan soldiers have been killed and wounded in a coordinated Taliban attack on an army base in northern Afghanistan, the country's defence ministry said. "The majority of our soldiers were offering Friday prayers" at the time of the assault, the ministry said in a statement, adding that "over 100 Afghan army forces were martyred and wounded". / AFP PHOTO / FARSHAD USYAN (Photo credit should read FARSHAD USYAN/AFP via Getty Images)
