At least five people were killed and six others wounded in multiple blasts near a media outlet and mosque in Kabul on Thursday, officials said, in the latest violence to hit the Afghan capital.
“There were two explosions. We still do not know the target of the attack, but Afghan Voice Agency is in the area of the attack,” interior minis
try spokesman Najib Danish
said.
“Our initi
al information shows there are five dead and six wounded but this toll could change.”
A third explosion was also reported, suggesting the attack may still be underway.
A hospital official told local TV that 18 wounded had been brought to his facility, including five in a critical condition.
Photos posted on Afghan Voice Agency’s Facebook page showed the inside o
f a compoun
d with debris and bodies lying on the ground.
