Taleban ‘kill captured Germans’

Two Germans kidnapped near Kabul in Afghanistan this week have been killed, a spokesman for the Taleban has said. Qari Yousuf Ahmadi said one hostage was shot at 1205 local time (0735 GMT) and the other an hour later as no German troop pullout had been announced.

Afghan and German officials say they have no confirmation of the killings and are seeking evidence.

The Taleban has also threatened to kill at least 18 hostages from South Korea, captured separately on Thursday.
