20 killed in Afghanistan as anti-Taliban leader mourned

The attacks came on the eve of the anniversary of the killing of Ahmad Shah Masoud, who led the resistance to the Taliban in the late 1990s and was killed by suicide bombers two days before the Sept 11 attacks. The US responded to the attacks by invading Afghanistan to topple the Taliban.
