Three female employees of a TV station in eastern Afghanistan have been shot dead by gunmen in the city of Jalalabad. A fourth was critically hurt. The three women killed had recently finished high school and worked in the dubbing department of the privately owned Enikas TV station. Initial reports suggest there were two separate but co-ordinated attacks on the women. Afghanistan has witnessed a deadly series of targeted attacks in recent months. Lotfullah Najafizada is the head of Afghanistan's most-watched news channel, ToloNews TV.
