Taliban violently disperse protest in Jalalabad

At least one person has been killed and seven others injured after the Taliban violently dispersed a protest in Jalalabad.

Dozens of protesters had raised the Afghan national flag and lowered the Taliban's own flag on Wednesday - the day before Afghanistan's independence day.

Militants then opened fire and beat people with batons, an Afghan health official said. He also said that six had been wounded.
