BBC World Service - BBC OS, Kabul Suicide Bomb Kills Many

At least 27 people have been killed by a suicide attack in a Shia mosque in Kabul

At least 27 people have been killed by a suicide attack in a Shia mosque in Kabul.

Police in Afghanistan say at least 27 people have died in a suicide bomb attack inside a Kabul mosque. New satellite images appear to show hundreds of homes belonging to Myanmar's Muslim Rohingyas destroyed, as the Burmese military conducts counter-insurgency operations in Rakhine state. 

In India, rescuers are combing through mangled wreckage after a train derailed late on Saturday in India's northern Uttar Pradesh state. And, our entertainment reporter, Chi Chi Izundu talks American Music Awards and Kanye West.
