Thousands march in Kabul over Hazara killings
Thousands of people have rallied outside the Afghan presidential palace in Kabul to protest against the killing by militants of seven ethnic Hazaras.
The bodies were found at the weekend in southern Zabul province where fighting between rival Taliban factions has escalated recently. Marchers carried coffins in the pouring rain.
"Today they kill us, tomorrow they kill you," some chanted. Others carried banners bearing photos of the victims and shouted "Death to the Taliban".
The murdered Hazaras included four men, two women and a nine-year-old girl.
