Yup ISIS still around
At least 29 people have been killed in an attack on a prison in the eastern Afghan city of Jalalabad which saw more than 1,000 inmates try to flee.
The attack, claimed by the Islamic State group (IS), began on Sunday evening when car bombs were detonated at the prison's entrance by gunmen.
Eight of the attackers were killed in a battle lasting almost 20 hours, a Nangarhar province spokesman said.
As many as 300 inmates are believed to be still on the run.
