AFGHANISTAN: Dozens of people were buried in a Kabul cemetery today in the second mass funeral of victims killed in a Pakistani air strike that hit a drug rehabilitation centre earlier this month.

Afghan officials have said hundreds died in the March 16 attack on the Omid Addiction Treatment Hospital, though the UN says the death toll is still under verification.

The strike came amid escalating cross-border fighting between Pakistan and Afghanistan that has seen repeated clashes and air strikes, with two more civilians killed today in eastern Afghanistan.
