Mazar-e-Sharif Attack - Death Toll Rises to 140

140 Soldiers Killed in Taliban Attack on Afghan Base, Official Says - The New York Times
The soldiers, most of them unarmed, were gunned down while eating lunch or emerging from Friday Prayer at the headquarters of the Afghan Army’s 209th Corps in Balkh by assailants in military uniforms who entered after another attacker had detonated explosives at a check post. The Taliban claimed responsibility for the assault.
“Most of those killed were in the mosque; some of them were in the dining facility,” Mr. Khairandish said.
