28 Detained over Kabul School Siege

The religious seminary "Khatam al-Nabiyyin" in Kabul has been besieged by Taliban forces, during which 28 protestors and students inside the center were detained, before four of them were released. These measures came after the seminary was closed by the Afghan Ministry of Justice last June, amid legal and ownership disputes, which sparked widespread protests among the country's Shia population.
