News Wrap: Bombings at Afghan sports center kills dozens

In our news wrap Wednesday, twin bombings in Afghanistan's capital left at least 20 people dead and 70 wounded. A suicide bomber blew himself up inside a training center for wrestlers, and a car bomb exploded minutes later. Also, Iran's currency is again in free fall, hitting new record lows against the dollar.
