The Ukrainian and Russian governments are reporting a shootout at a checkpoint set up by pro-Russian insurgents in eastern Ukraine that has left one person dead and others hospitalized with gunshot wounds. Pro-Russian activists brought to the stage a man who was accused of being a member of the radical organization Right sector. They also spoke about what he had found weapons and ammunition.(AP Photo/Max Vetrov)

Afghan presidential candidate Abdullah Abdullah talks on the phone before an interview with The Associated Press at his residence in Kabul, Afghanistan, Sunday, April 20, 2014. New partial results released in Afghanistan's presidential election show candidate Abdullah Abdullah is still the front-runner, though a runoff election looks likely. The winner will replace Hamid Karzai, the only president the country has known since the 2001 U.S.-led invasion ousted the Taliban, and will oversee a tumultuous period during which the U.S. and NATO forces are expected to withdraw most of their troops from the country.
