After a day of attacks that rippled through Kabul, a series of explosions went off in the center of the city early Monday morning. NATO says that insurgents attacked seven locations in the capital, including the Afghan and American parliament buildings along with the American, German, and Russian embassies. There were no reported injuries in Monday’s attacks and damages were limited. The bombings have been attributed to the Haqqani network, an insurgent group that sometimes aligns with the Taliban, though the Taliban claims responsibility.
