A US drone strike killed several Islamic State suicide bombers on their way to carry out a second attack on Kabul airport, in an apparent sign of uneasy security cooperation with the Taliban.
The strike hit a vehicle packed with explosives in a residential area of Kabul on Sunday, triggering a blast that could be heard across the city, US and Taliban officials said.
Nine civilians from one family, including six children, were killed in the strike, a witness told CNN.
