Kabul suicide attack kills 17 people and wounds 79 others

The blast has occurred near the interior ministry building, which is near the offices of the European Union and the Council for Peace.

The Taliban have claimed responsibility for this attack. Reports say an ambulance vehicle to hide the bomb was used, reports “BBC”, report Periscope.

Witnesses say that the area near foreign embassy objects was crowded with people before the bomb exploded on Saturday morning. Smoke bolts have been seen all over the city.

Officials said the death toll would probably continue to rise after the victims were brought to hospitals for medical treatment./Periscopi/
