Also, Taliban militants have claimed a suicide bombing that killed a political candidate.

In our news wrap Wednesday, a budding trade war between the U.S. and China escalated after President Trump ordered a second round of potential tariffs. It could include 10 percent levies on $200 billion in Chinese goods, from fish to furniture to vacuum cleaners.
