The Islamic State claimed responsibility for a series of attacks in Afghanistan last week. On Thursday, at least 31 were killed and 87 wounded when the terrorist group bombed a Shia mosque. The same day, a vehicle exploded near a police station.
On Tuesday, two bombs went off in Kabul at a school for boys. Nehemiah with FMI says one boy reported stepping out for a break with his classmates when the first bomb exploded. “The second blast took place as rescuers tried to ferry victims from the first explosion to the hospital.
“Judging by the footage we have, and the reports we are getting from our sources there in Kabul, I would say the numbers are very, very high.”
This attack also targeted an area with a high Shia population.
