Kabul: At least 10 people were killed and eight others grievously injured in a strong explosion outside the military airport in Kabul on Sunday, a spokesman for the Taliban-run interior ministry of Afghanistan said. However, no terrorist group has claimed responsibility for the attack as of yet.
“Today morning an explosion took place outside Kabul military airport, due to which a number of our citizens were martyred and injured,” spokesman Abdul Nafi Takor told Reuters news agency.
Taliban spokesman did not specify the nature or target of the explosion. Meanwhile, security forces have cordoned off the area to carry out the investigation.
It may be recalled here that three days ago four people were wounded after an explosion in Taluqan city, the capital of Takhar province. Reports suggested the bomb was placed under a local administrative staffer’s desk.
