Afghan Shiite Muslim Believers Mark Ashoura

KABUL, AFGHANISTAN -- Sept 28: Two Afghan Shiite Muslim women offer sweets to visitors at the Karte Sakhi shrine near Kabul University in preparation for Ashoura, one of the holiest days of the Shiite calendar that marks the 7th c. death of Imam Hossein, in Kabul, Afghanistan on September 28, 2017. Security is tight as Afghan Shiites have repeatedly been targeted by Islamic State (ISIS) attacks, including one at this shrine during Ashoura in 2016 in which gunmen killed 18 people.
